In November 1993 a bunch of young lads from the north side of Dublin presented themselves to the world at large with a now infamous performance on Ireland’s biggest TV show, ‘The Late Late Show’. Twenty years, twenty five million record sales, four #1 studio albums and six #1 singles later, Boyzone are still going strong and are set to embark upon a new stage in their hugely successful career.
To mark their 20th year together, Ronan, Keith, Shane and Mikey have already announced a major eighteen-date UK and Ireland arena tour, to thank their fans for the phenomenal support over the years and to pay tribute to their brother, Stephen Gately. The band will release a brand new studio album titled ‘BZ20’ on Friday November 22nd.
Boyzone recorded ‘BZ20’ at Metrophonic with Brian Rawling, who has previously produced some of Ronan’s solo material as well as delivering hits for the likes of One Direction, Kylie Minogue and Cheryl Cole. Boyzone recently premiered the album’s first single ‘Love Will Save The Day’ (A-listed at Radio 2) by performing it as part of a medley on the Australian edition of X-Factor, which was recently followed by a performance on The Jonathan Ross Show. They have also completed the recording of an upcoming ITV special Boyzone at 20: No Matter What.
“We’re incredibly proud to announce the release of our new album, ‘BZ20’ and our new home at Warner Music. It seems crazy that 20 years have passed since we first got together but we are as excited now with the new album as we were back then. Bring on the next twenty years…”
Boyzone return to the stage later this year for the first time since 2011 for the ‘BZ20 Anniversary Tour’:
