Background

On 22 February 2015, it was announced that Faustini had signed a record deal with RCA Records and would be heading to Los Angeles to record his debut album, which would be released later in 2015.[3]

Regarding the album, Faustini said: "I'm such a positive person, and I like to smile even in tough times. This is what life is about for me - be kind to the people you love (and the people you don't), and always smile... In other words, give a little love!"[2]

Lead single "Give a Little Love" received its debut airplay on BBC Radio 2 on 2 June 2015.[4]

One of the songs on the album, "What Would Dusty Do", was co-written by The Voice UK finalist Vince Kidd.[5]
