Pet Shop Boys

The PET SHOP BOYS are undoubtedly one of the world’s most successful pop duos. Since 20th March now their newest album ‘Yes’ is in stores. A prolific album which the gentlemen are going to present live in Germany in June!

With their new studio album ‘Yes’ the PET SHOP BOYS have once more confirmed their exceptional status as Great Britain’s most successful pop duo. While the entrance on #4 of the British Album’s chart marks their greatest chart success in this decade in their native Britain, Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe - with their entrance on #3 of the German Album’s Chart - have proven once nor their enormous popularity among their German following. In June, the PET SHOPS BOYS come to Germany for 4 dates within the scopes of this year’s world tour. Besides Cologne they’re going to play in Stuttgart, Berlin, and Leipzig. Furthermore the duo - known for its outré multimedia shows headlines this year’s Roskilde Festival.

The new album ‘Yes’ pushed the PET SHOP BOYS into high favour of the music critics once more. While the duo was just honoured at this year’s British Music Awards for their ‘Outstanding Contribution to Music’, Tennant and Lowe demonstrated with their 10th album that even 25 years after the release of their groundbreaking first single ‘West End Girls’ they’ve a sound grasp of contemporary development. There was rarely any record of the PET SHOP BOYS having been celebrated by critics that much: “Smart music for smart people (SZ)”, “Indispensable” (Die Welt), “Only little records deliver such exquisite entertainment” (Laut.de), “One of the best album in their career” (Amazon.de)
