Before kicking off his ‘Reflection’ tour of the UK and Ireland on Friday (April 10), Rick Astley will release his new single ‘Raindrops’.
Set to premiere on the BBC Radio 2 Breakfast Show with Gary Davies, the release comes hours ahead of the ‘Together Forever’ hitmaker’s return to the stage at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro that evening.
“Who’s ready for new music,” he wrote on social media. My new song ‘Raindrops’ is out this Friday, April 10th!
“Can’t wait for you to hear this one!”
The tour will see Astley – who marked his 60th birthday in February with previous single ‘Waiting On You’ – play in Newcastle, Belfast, Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Bournemouth and Cardiff throughout the month, before wrapping with gigs in Nottingham, Birmingham and, finally, London, on April 25.
All shows will feature Gabrielle as a special guest.
