Duran Duran’s 40-year career is to be the subject of a brand new biography from leading music writer Stephen Davis.
‘Please Please Tell Me Now: The Duran Duran Story’, set for publication on July 29, comes from the author behind ‘Gold Dust Woman: The Biography of Stevie Nicks’ via Hachette Books.
It delves into the band’s professional and personal archives and offers a definitive account of one of most successful acts internationally of the ’80s and beyond.
‘Please Please Tell Me Now: The Duran Duran Story’ is available to pre-order from Amazon, Waterstones and WH Smith now.
The new release come after Duran Duran confirmed a comeback is imminent, as the group prepares to release their highly-anticipated 15th studio album.
The Hungry Like the Wolf group hasn’t released new music since their 2015 LP ‘Paper Gods’ but, according to keyboard player Nick Rhodes, new music is on the way.
Speaking to Italian host Red Ronnie on his Red Ronnie TV livestream show, the musician confirmed a comeback is imminent, ahead of a full album release in the final quarter of 2021.
Nick also revealed the group was hard at work on an anthology collection to coincide with Duran Duran’s 40th anniversary. However, according to the musician there’s an overwhelming selection of recordings to revisit – including an unreleased album’s worth of tracks from the ‘Astronaut’ sessions.
