British soul icon and music treasure, Billy Ocean, is returning to Australia in September 2025 for his One World Tour.
Following the 40th anniversary of his landmark album ‘Suddenly’ and the special vinyl re-release, Billy Ocean will undertake a huge UK tour before coming to Australia. The show will see him perform all his greatest hits and fan favourites.
Said Billy of his forthcoming tour “I’m thrilled to get back to Australia – every time I come there, I’m welcomed with open arms. Can’t wait to see all my fans – it will be one giant party!”
Billy Ocean has spent more of his life onstage than anywhere else. He had enjoyed chart success with a pair of No. 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 No.1 in the States and No. 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.
Billy Ocean’s success continued in the wake of ‘Suddenly’, achieving similarly great things with the subsequent albums ‘Love Zone’ and ‘Tear Down These Walls’, as well as further signature hits such as ‘When The Going Gets Tough, The Tough Gets Going’, ‘There’ll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry)’ and ‘Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car’.
After some years out of the spotlight, his reputation flourished again in the 21st century with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the MOBOs, a return to the upper reaches of the charts with both the ‘Here You Are’ compilation and the ‘One World’ studio album, an Ivor Novello for International Achievement, and an MBE. His recent UK tours have included major London shows at the Royal Albert Hall and the Palladium, while his total global album sales have exceeded 30 million.
With an untouchable stage presence and so many undeniable hits, Billy Ocean is only growing stronger with age and his songs still stand the test of time.
