Harry Potter star Tom Felton has unveiled his debut single, Hawaii, online.

The star, who plays Harry's nemesis Draco Malfoy in the film franchise, signed a deal with an independent label last year and has now taken his first steps into the music industry with the new track.

Hawaii is a guitar and piano-driven song, which features Tom singing about relaxing on the US island.

Felton had previously talked about launching a music career after Potter filming was over, telling The Sun that he was looking to follow in N-Dubz's footsteps:

"I was thinking of doing some N-Dubz-style stuff. I am looking to get into the grime rap UK scene.

"I'm going to change my image - backward caps, the lot." 

Felton is also set to work with McFly's Tom Fletcher on his new album, with a source telling the newspaper:

"Tom sounded out McFly's Tom to discuss the industry and the musical direction he wants to take.

"He's a huge fan of the boys and wanted to work on a few songs.

"There is a big chance the pair could soon go into the studio together."

Tom is currently starring in The Rise of the Planet of the Apes, which is at cinemas now.
