80s pop star Matt Goss of Bros fame announces Lancashire tour date: where, when & how much are tickets
Award-winning musician and pop icon Matt Goss has announced a new Lancashire tour date next year.
80s pop legend and ‘New King of Las Vegas’ Matt Goss will bring his new stage show The Hits and More to the Blackpool Grand Theatre this March.
Matt Goss first burst onto the scene as lead singer of the English pop sensation BROS with his brother Luke in the 1980s, storming to the top of the music charts with hits such as When Will I Be Famous, I Owe You Nothing and Drop the Boy.
He then went on to become the youngest artist to sell out Wembley Stadium, performing to 77,000 fans, and he also played a record 19 consecutive nights to more than 200,000 fans at Wembley Arena before breaking a world record by selling out two nights at London’s O2 Arena in seven seconds.
The 57-year-old has also performed twice for the late HRH Queen Elizabeth and in 2018, a BAFTA winning movie about Matt and his brother’s lives entitled ‘After the Screaming Stops’ was released which became the most downloaded BBC production in 2018 and was hailed “the greatest music documentary of all time” by GQ Magazine.
Although he has just announced a UK tour, Matt has actually been performing in the United States to great acclaim for the last eleven years: after initially heading to Vegas’ Palms Casino for just one year, his show became an instant success, and he subsequently performed at the iconic Caesars Palace for the remainder of his Vegas residency.
Whilst in the US, Goss also performed in world renowned venues such as Carnegie Hall and Madison Square Garden, and August 8 was even officially hailed as Matt Goss Day in Las Vegas!
