Steps returned to the stage as they headlined the first day of Mighty Hoopla with a show-stopping performance.
The group delivered hits from their entire career – from their debut LP ‘Step One’ to 2021 album ‘What The Future Holds Pt. 2’ – and even threw in a surprise cover version.
Before belting out their chart-topping disco smash Stomp, the band donned shimmering wings to sing Cher’s classic 1998 hit Strong Enough, which proved an instant crowd pleaser.
Introducing the performance, Faye Tozer said: “This is [by] one of our heroes and one of our icons.”
It comes as Steps prepare to celebrate 25 years together with the release of their new ‘Platinum Collection’ greatest hits LP.
The group will release their latest retrospective on August 19, featuring their best-loved singles plus two new tracks: Hard 2 Forget and The Runner.
“We cannot believe this year marks our 25th anniversary,” said the group. “Someone recently mentioned that the latest era of Steps has actually now outlasted our original run which was a delightful surprise.
“This anniversary marks the perfect moment to take a look back at everything we’ve achieved as a band. We realised that we’ve released a full 3 new studio albums since our last Greatest Hits so it felt like time to combine all our hits on one package.
“We’ve recorded two brand-new tracks for the album and presto, the ‘Platinum Collection’ was born. It was such good fun listening back at 25 years of our songs and we hope you enjoy this trip down memory lane as much we did”.
‘Platinum Collection’ is available to pre-order now.
