Experimental social media strategist and presumed X Factor footnote James Arthur has signed a new record deal with Columbia.

The news was com­mu­nic­ated via, you guessed it, Twitter in the following, very polite manner:

After a crazy 15 months I'm so happy to be able to say that I've signed a worldwide deal with a major label and releasing album 2 in 2016.

I want to say a huge thanks first of all to my incred­ible fans for the love and support you have shown me. Without you.. God knows what.

— James Arthur 🦉 (@JamesArthur23) September 6, 2015

Thanks to @columbia_de @ColumbiaRecords can't wait to finish this album with you.

— James Arthur 🦉 (@JamesArthur23) September 6, 2015

Could be good, right? Genuinely. All it takes is the right song. COME ON GUYS HEAR HIM OUT. And if it's not, well, we'll find a way to move on.

Hopefully we'll find out what #HQ have to say about this in due course.
