Not sure if this means anything, but someone on Twitter @helmutarsparter (Marc Fox), has posted this little snippet last night:
receiving widest spectrum of upbeat new songs for the new boyzone album
Sounds interesting
I did a search on him and he seems to have been a musician, he has worked with Phil Thornalley and Steve Lipson both of these have connections with Ronan. I also think he may be connected to Universal Music because he seems to be following a lot of Universal acts including Ronan. He is also following Jamie Hartman (Ben's Brother) who met Boyzone last week and has been writing with Mikey for the new ablum.
Editing to say just found out that he is the head of A & R @
Universal Music
