Louis Tomlinson who found fame as a member of the boy band One Direction, recently shared on social media his dream of helping new talented artists to get into the music business. In 2015 Louis created his own record label Triple Strings Ltd, an imprint of Simon Cowell’s label Syco, he was signed to back then. He shared on Twitter that he was unable to sign the artists himself: ”I always dreamed of having my own label, having an imprint never really worked for me because I still had to have someone else’s blessing to sign people. People I believed in massively but unfortunately didn’t fit the traditional pop role hence never doing the deals…”.

Singer continued: “So I’ve decided to put it out there in the world today. I’m going to start my own music management company to help develop new artists. Watch this space”. He then added that his new project is at the moment just “An Idea”.
I just wanted to take the first step of actualising the idea but at this stage that’s all this is. An idea! — Louis Tomlinson (@Louis_Tomlinson) March 6, 2021
His fans showed great excitement about the project saying: “this is amazing ! knowing you i know so many new artists are going to get the best guidance and help to develop themselves and their music and obviously stay true to themselves and all thanks to you !”, and many of them just added how proud they are.
Louis William Tomlinson began his music career in 2010 when he auditioned on the British music competition series The X Factor. He and other four contestants were formed into a group – One Direction and quickly shot to stardom in 2010 after the show. After one of the members Zayn Malik left in 2015, the band continued as a four-piece but later that year they announced they’d be taking a break.
In 2019 he joined Arista Records within Sony Music family and in 2020 left Simon Cowell’s label. Louis’s debut album “Walls” came out in January 2020 which made him the final former member of the group to release a solo album. The album reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and received three stars by NME. Five singles have been released from the album, including “Two of Us”, “Kill My Mind” and “We Made It”.
