Boy George releases first artist album in ten years
Pop icon Boy George releases his first artist album in almost
ten years. Following a non-stop, sell-out European tour with 'Night
Of The Proms' in 2010 where George performed to over 15,000 fans a
night; one of the World's most recognizable figures is officially
back on mainstream music's radar for good.
'Ordinary Alien' is an accomplished collection of tracks featuring
Boy George & Kinky Roland's faultless mod-pop production. As
songwriters and all-round creative entities, Boy George and Kinky
Roland have worked closely over the past fifteen years and Ordinary
Alien is born out of this relationship ' the pair are renowned for
their seemingly never-ending surplus of quality material.
If Boy George isn't writing then he is simply not Boy George -
moving into 2011 and in light of this huge body of work, Boy George
is determined to be recognized as the talented musician he is.
Ordinary Alien is the rise of George again ' releasing fresh music
to the World and chipping away at his craft as a writer, a singer,
and a successful producer. Boy George has been working closely with
Decode Records ' first releasing 'Amazing Grace' in March 2010,
moving onto working with Decode on the launch of his own label.
After spending years working with majors, George is happier working
with an independent label as it gives infinite scope for personal
creativity.
Originating from Berlin, Kinky Roland has been producing top
selling tracks and remixes with some of the biggest names in Dance
Music ' Bananarama, S'Express with Mark Moore, Roland Sebastian
Faber (Aube records), Mini Legend, Starcluster (with Keen K on Aube
Records), Marc Almond, Jonny Slut, Glen Gregory, Fran, Princess
Julia, Gene Serene, John Taylor; and of course Boy George.
Boy George first shot to international stardom in the 1980s as the
front man of one of the UK's biggest exports - Culture Club, who
are re-uniting in 2012 for a Word tour to celebrate the group's
30th Anniversary. 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 recognizable,
