Blue

Blue are one of the world’s most popular boy bands, having sold over fifteen million records worldwide and one million singles in the UK alone. Their iconic singles “All Rise”, “One Love” and “Fly By” dominated the airwaves upon release, bringing Antony Costa, Duncan James, Lee Ryan, and Simon Webbe international stardom and global success.

Blue’s debut single was released in May 2001, immediately shooting to No. 4 on the UK Singles Chart. “All Rise” was swiftly followed by “Too Close”, their second single and first number one, an instant success that firmly established the group as one of Britain’s hottest boy bands. By the time they released their debut album, the buzz around Blue had reached epic proportions, and the record unsurprisingly hit number one, selling almost two million copies in the UK alone. Blue capitalised on the success of their debut with the release of 2002’s One Love, a smooth and sexy take on modern pop music that featured a vocal contribution from none other than Elton John. This album cemented their status as UK pop icons, fuelling a hugely successful international tour and earning them a coveted BRIT Award for British Pop Act.

Following a third number one album, Blue disbanded for several years, only to reunite in 2011 – much to the delight of their adoring fanbase. Since their revival, the group have supported fellow pop idols Steps on tour and released an incredible new track, “In Your Arms.”
