Career

First coming to prominence by joining the boyband Brother Beyond as their lead singer, in 1987 (when the band and their record label won an auction to record a track with the successful 1980s record producers Stock, Aitken and Waterman), Moore was subsequently in the line-up of another boyband, Worlds Apart, that became chart stars in France, Moore & the band had hits with songs such as - Je Te Donne, Quand Je Reve De Toi, Everlasting Love, Baby Come Back & Everybody - each single reaching No2 chart position in France! in 1997 the album Everybody became the 3rd best selling album that year and is in the all-time biggest sellers ever in that country.

After leaving the group, Moore ventured into music management, representing a number of Pop Idol contestants, such as Hayley Evetts.

In the late 90s Moore recorded a duet with the English popstar Kim Wilde called "If There Was Love". The duet was never commercially released, but Moore gave it away as a free download on his website in 2001.

In the 2000s, he found himself as a reality TV personality, not only as a singer on music revival programme Hit Me Baby One More Time, but also as Lisa Scott-Lee's manager on the MTV Europe programme Totally Scott-Lee.

In April and May 2006, Moore appeared as the band manager in the E4/Channel 4 television programme, Boys Will Be Girls, a six-week series featuring singers who had previously been in groups such as the Fast Food Rockers and Scooch. On 18 July 2006, Moore issued a statement, via his website, announcing that he had stopped managing acts.. "...I would like to let you know that I am no longer managing acts. I will be concentrating on TV / radio work plus recording new music and live (sic) singing! The only artist now managed by Hyperactive from my singers is James Fox".[2]

In 2007, Moore decided, with Steve Hart and Cal Cooper, to make a comeback with Worlds Apart in France, a best of album was released and since then the band have regularly come together for tours and shows across France.

Moore continues to tour extensively as a solo artist, occasionally with Brother Beyond in the nostalgia circuit, and more recently alongside a re-formed Worlds Apart.[2] On 7 February 2015 Moore appeared on BBC1's talent show The Voice but did not make it through to the second round.
