Billy Ocean
Following the 40th anniversary of his landmark album ‘Suddenly’ and special vinyl re-release, Billy Ocean has announced a huge UK tour for June 2025.
‘The Very Best of Billy Ocean’ will see him perform all of his greatest hits and fan favourites across 14 dates including the Brighton Centre.
Billy Ocean had enjoyed chart success with a pair of #2 hits prior to ‘Suddenly’ (‘Love Really Hurts Without You’, ‘Red Light Spells Danger’) but this record catapulted him to new heights. Its lead single ‘Caribbean Queen (No More Love On The Run)’ raced to #1 in the States and #6 in the UK, with the follow-ups ‘Loverboy’ and the title track also international smash hits. The album was similarly successful, leading to his first Top 10 album positions in both the UK and US, while ‘Caribbean Queen’ would later be rewarded with a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Performance.
