BOY GEORGE IS BACK!
WITH A NEW SINGLE

AMAZING GRACE RELEASED 22ND MARCH
& A UK TOUR COMMENCING 9TH APRIL

Boy George is back doing what he loves best - singing live… stripped down, acoustic, unplugged. From Friday 9th April Boy George Up Close and Personal: Live in Concert sees George back on the road having just sold out 11 nights at the Leicester Square Theatre in London over Christmas. Taking this show on the road, the tour will see George performing a thrilling set featuring his biggest hits from Culture Club, his solo career, new writing and some great covers.

On Monday 22nd March, his first single of 2010, Amazing Grace, will be released by MN2S new label, Decode Records. Written by Boy George, John Themis & Roland Faber and produced & mixed by Kinky Roland, the single also features additional vocals by the critically acclaimed Portuguese singer Ana Lains. Amazing Grace will be released as a digital download, a CD single and as a limited edition vinyl picture disc! The release features club re-mixes by Sharp Boys, Filo & Peri, and Mac & Taylor, and the acoustic version features Jamiroquai’s Rob Harris on guitar. MN2S: “It’s really great to be releasing music from such a seminal and iconic artist; we’ve never experienced such a buzz on a single before.”

Boy George needs little introduction. He first shot to international stardom in the 1980’s as the front man of one of the UK’s biggest exports - Culture Club. He has sold over 50 million albums and has had top 10 hits in every country. Singer, actor, DJ, artist, photographer, fashion designer, he has constantly reinvented himself and remains today one of the world’s most recognisable iconic figures. He recently started a new monthly drink & drug-free night club DOSE at Proud Camden. His return to live work after a 10 year absence wowed audiences and critics throughout the UK:

Beyond the face paint lies a great British soul voice. - Evening Standard
Nobody holds the spotlight in quite the same way - Metro
His unmistakable voice was as solid as ever… A great showman. - Southend Echo
Outstanding voice… - The Scottish Sun
.. concert embodied all that should continue to be treasured about Boy George - Newcastle Eve. Chronicle

Anyway, Boy George attended the opening party of this Abba theme park last night and tweeted a video showing Philip Sallon (the promoter responsible for giving George his first DJ gig, before he was in Culture Club) dancing with the Abba holograms.

You can hear George in the background yelling that the song is not "Dancing Queen" but "Ageing Queen."

 

Fraîchement sorti de prison où il purgeait une peine pour cause de séquestration, Boy George est de retour avec un nouveau single "Amazing Grace" - ainsi qu'un featuring aux côté de la rappeuse Titchy. Par ailleurs, on murmure qu'il pourrait prochainement enregistrer un morceau en duo avec Lady GaGa : découvrez ses deux clips !
