According to a post from Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, the book – out May 10 – includes “an in-depth look at the new album (set for release in Spring 2024) including artwork, lyrics, and a diary of the creative process with commentary from PSB”, along with “a feature about the album cover photo-session” and “an interview with [James Ford], producer of the album”.
‘Annually 2024’ is available to pre-order from Pet Shop Boys’ official store.
Before then, Pet Shop Boys will release their ‘Dreamworld’ concert film, which documents the synth-pop duo’s greatest hits tour live from the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, in cinemas on January 31 and February 4, 2024.
Captured live by director David Barnard in a 14-camera shoot, the film offers “a lavish stage show and mesmerising visual backdrops in front of an exuberant, sold-out audience”, according to a news release.
Tickets are on sale now and are available here.
The duo have already played concerts across the UK and globally as part of the run, which was originally announced in 2020 and commenced when Covid restrictions were lifted.
