Rick Astley is coming to Germany for two exclusive concerts - he's bringing his new album "Are We There Yet?" with him, which will be released on October 6th, 2023.
It's been 36 years since he first rose to fame, and yet today Rick Astley may be a more prominent figure in pop culture than ever before.
The likeable 57-year-old young at heart continues to win new fans, whether it's while on stage with Foo Fighters, Take That or Blossoms, becoming an unexpected social media phenomenon, or simply enjoying the never-ending love that is brought up to his seminal hit "Never Gonna Give You Up," boosted by its use in a deeply moving scene in "Ted Lasso."
In fact, since returning to the top of the charts in 2016, Rick has posted the highest charting of his entire career at "50".
It's been a journey of a lifetime, but the path ahead remains open for further exploration - the next stop is the release of his long-awaited ninth studio album Are We There Yet? on October 6th.
"Are We There Yet?" is the sound of Rick looking back and building on his experiences since the release of "Beautiful Life" in 2018. Some of the new songs were created during lockdown in 2020, but he deliberately chose to leave them unfinished until it was possible to play them live again. A simple, uncluttered piano ballad, "Blue Sky," speaks to the natural serenity brought on by lockdown.
We are looking forward to the upcoming European tour and especially to the concerts in Cologne and Berlin.
Get your tickets now and be a part of the legendary evening, where not only "Never Gonna Give You Up" will be sung!
