Speaking about the exciting news, Paige said: ‘Since leaving the Love Island villa I’ve been working on original songs but wanted to start putting some music out as soon as possible.
‘During lockdown the opportunity to release one of my favourite house tracks with a 36-piece instrument arrangement was a total dream come true.
‘I also found out that Robyn S (whose song I sang in the villa) had collaborated with The House & Garage Orchestra, so the record deal really did feel like fate!
‘We chose an up-tempo song which I hope will become this summer’s feel-good anthem!’ explained Paige, who is in a relationship with fellow Love Island winner Finley Tapp.

The announcement of her record deal comes after public anticipation for Paige to release music, following her captivating performance of the Robyn S club classic Show Me Love in the Love Island villa earlier this year.
Paige’s incredible vocal ability was, however, first displayed on television in 2012 when she performed on Britain’s got Talent.
Speaking about Paige’s debut single, NewState Music said: ‘Having heard Paige sing Show Me Love back in January, we knew she had incredible talent so were 100% on board to collaborate.
‘We’re always on the lookout for talented new musicians and knew Movin’ Too Fast would be the perfect fit for Paige’s voice.

‘The House & Garage Orchestra is an ensemble of the very best in the biz and we couldn’t be happier to have produced a song with such talented musicians. We hope you love it as much as we do!’
The House & Garage Orchestra was established in 2015 by long-time friends, music producer Shy Cookie (producer of UKG legend DJ Luck and MC Neat) and events promoter Ishmael Hamilton.
Paige and Lewis dated after meeting in college in their late teens before their rise to fame, with Paige now going onto date her fellow Love Island winner Finn Tapp.
The former couple while they were both studying music at New College Lanarkshire in 2014 and were together until 2016.

Earlier this year, BRIT winner Lewis explained that he penned the 2017 single Bruises about Paige, with the heartfelt ballad reaching number six in the UK charts.
He said: ‘Everyone thinks Someone You Loved is about Paige, it’s actually Bruises, and a bunch of other songs on the album that are about [her].’
The music star went to reveal that he found it strange seeing his former lover on the television, but that they remain on excellent terms.
Paige Turley and The House & Garage Orchestra’s Movin’ Too Fast will be available to stream and download on Spotify and Apple Music from 17th July 2020
