Billy Ocean is celebrating after the release of his latest album Here You Are: The Best Of Billy Ocean soared to number 4, becoming his highest charting album since 1989. The Caribbean Queen star is Britain’s biggest selling black artist of all time, with a string of multiplatinum hits. Currently on an international tour, Billy Ocean has announced a huge run of U.K. headline dates for 2017 where he will be performing all of his greatest hits from the new album and favourite tracks.
The 2CD set features a personal collection of Billy’s interpretations of songs which helped the young Leslie Charles become the Billy Ocean we all know today, alongside a career spanning celebration of his biggest hits.
Billy said: “I’m humbled by the success of this album am grateful that people continue to find joy in my music. I have so many people to thank, but I owe this one to my fans.”
The Liverpool Philharmonic Hall will play host to Billy Ocean on March 27th as part of a national tour which starts in Llandudno on the 24th and visits cities and town such as Birmingham, Gateshead, Oxford and which will culminate in Leicester on April 27th.
Tickets for the concert in Liverpool are on sale from Friday 17th June and available from the Philharmonic Hall Box office.
