Holly Johnson of Frankie Goes To Hollywood has announced two special UK concerts. Holly Johnson tickets go on sale at 10am today.
The vocalist will return to his hometown of Liverpool for a performance at the Philharmonic Hall on October 21, before a date at the London Palladium on October 27.
The shows will commemorate 40 years since Frankie Goes To Hollywood stormed the ’80s music charts with their debut single, Relax. The 63-year-old will also celebrate 35 years since the release of his solo album, ’Blast’, which spawned the hits Love Train, Americanos, Heaven’s Here and Atomic City. The record will also be reissued on coloured vinyl this autumn.
The news follows hot on the heels of a special Frankie Goes To Hollywood one-off reunion concert to launch the 67th Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool at the weekend, which saw the group’s classic line-up reunite for the first time in 36 years.
Commenting on the new gigs—which will also include performances of hits Two Tribes, The Power of Love, Welcome to the Pleasuredome, along with tracks from Johnson’s solo career—he said:
"I’ve been working for months on this autumn UK and European solo shows to Celebrate 35 years since ’Blast’ went to number 1 in the UK and 40 years since Relax by FGTH was released.
"All of a Sudden with a Boom Bang A Bang the Eurovision Song Contest asked Frankie to reform for a one-off exclusive performance at their Opening Ceremony, it’s all gone Ballistic ever since we said yes!
"I’m delighted to be playing my hometown gig at the Liverpool Philharmonic plus the London Palladium in October this year. I’ll be performing all the Frankie and solo hits so come and celebrate with me!"
