    The group — starring Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Shane Lynch and Mikey Graham — will take to the stage at London’s Emirates Stadium on Saturday, 6 June 2026, for a night they promise will be “a celebration of the fans, the music, and the memories.”

The Lottery Winners have teamed up with Boy George for their new single Let Me Down.

Lifted from the band’s upcoming third album ‘Anxiety Replacement Therapy’, the track follows the epic Shaun Ryder collaboration Money with a summery vibe reminiscent of the Culture Club star’s eighties hits.

Alongside the music, the group shared a neon-draped music video that pays homage to George’s legacy of equality and paving a way for a younger generation of artists.

Of the clip, frontman Thom Rylance says: “Filming the video felt like a beautiful fever dream. I was in this strange neon world laughing and singing with Boy George. He’s probably the nicest and most interesting person I’ve ever met.”

Revealing how the collaboration came about, he adds: “I was researching what it is that makes a song a classic. I’m intrigued by pop icons and the idea of classic songs, so I was listening to a lot of Boy George. 

“I wrote Let Me Down for George without knowing it. The song has a light and sunny eighties feel, with a lot of the same colours as other Boy George songs. When the penny dropped that George should sing it, I couldn’t rest until he agreed. Which I’m sure wasn’t very fun for him.” 

Having pestered him on Twitter, George finally agreed to listen to Thom’s track and was instantly impressed, sending the response: “Darling, I love it!”

‘Anxiety Replacement Therapy’ is the follow-up to the group’s 2021 LP ‘Something to Leave the House For’ and is described by the four-piece as “a self-help tape for anyone playing it”.

“Each of the albums in my collection are a self-help tape for me,” explains Thom. “If I listen to Paul Simon’s ‘Graceland’, it’s because I know it’ll put me in a good mood. If I play The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths, it’s because I want to embrace feeling sad.”

“We know how much our band means to people,” bassist Kate Lloyd adds. “If this album gives support to anyone and helps keep them going, that’d mean more than anything.”

‘Anxiety Replacement Therapy’ is out April 28 on Modern Sky UK and available to pre-order now.
