Matt Willis's girlfriend Emma Griffiths has helped inspire his new solo work.
The former Busted star, who has been with the MTV host for eighteen months, premiered the material at a recent industry showcase.
"I wasn't always sure I'd be able to bounce back after the year I've had,” Willis explained.
“Most of the songs on my new album are inspired from the year after Busted split. And one in particular is inspired by Emma. She's been fantastic. A cutting of her driving me back from rehab really hit me. One of the songs was based on that."
Willis releases his first single on May 22.
