He has a songwriting credit on the No. 4 album in the UK. British boyband The Wanted performs Jones' song "Personal Solider" on their debut album.He's also written for Jordin Sparks, Jesse McCartney, and Joe.

But he's making headway with his own new release,"BEA-utiful," a midtempo, electro pop ode to women that equally values inner beauty,independence, intelligence and sex appeal. The tracks' playful keys havewarranted comparisons to A Ha's '80s hit "Take On Me."

In the "BEA-utiful" video Jones stakes out "Deal Or No Deal"model Claudia Jordan with the help of another Hollywoodbeauty, actress Paige Hurt. And there's a diverse makeup of video girls,representing plus sizes, varying complexions, and ethnicities.

 

 

Jones, who co-stars in the ABC.com series "BreathingUnderwater" will portray a womanizing musician in a new film "Talking With TheTax Man."Vanessa Simmons will play his girlfriend and former Danity Kane member D Woodswill also appear in the film that begins shooting in January.
