Please welcome our special guest Blue.

Thank you for joining us. Please tell the readers a bit about yourselves?

Blue: We are Blue! And we have been doing this for over twenty years now and are currently releasing our sixth studio album called ‘Heart & Soul’.

Since the release of your latest single “Heart & Soul” what have you been up to since then?

Blue: We are very busy at the moment in the run-up to our album release and UK Tour which starts in December. And we’ve been doing promo across several countries. It’s great to be able to talk to so many journalists and so many podcasts from all around the world. and we can’t wait to be on the road again performing.

The release of your single “Heart & Soul” which by the way is a great catchy song. What was the inspiration behind it?

Blue: We wrote or co-wrote most of the album, but this was a song that was presented to us that was written by someone else and as soon as we heard it we knew it was a perfect fit. We went into the studio in London to try a demo version of it and it just worked.

When should we expect a new single?

Blue: This is our third single from the new album ‘Heart & Soul’ after we released ‘Haven’t Found You Yet’ back in May, followed by ‘Dance With Me’ & ‘Magnetic’ (which has turned into a real fan favourite).

Heart & Soul which is the same title as your upcoming album, what should fans expect when hearing it?

Blue: We had a focal point when we started this album that we wanted to go back to the beginning in turns of music and revisit that vibe we had on our first album. We brought in Hugh Goldsmith who ran our label on our first three albums to A&R the album and over a lengthy period of lockdown during the pandemic we managed to slowly put the album together. It’s an album we are exceptionally proud of, and we hope there is something for everyone on there. It’s old-school Blue with a fresh new twist.

In the next few months, what should we expect?

Blue: We have a lot of touring to do starting with the UK in December and followed by some dates in Asia in February and we really hope we can get back to Australia and New Zealand again soon. We toured there right before the pandemic and had so much fun.

Lastly, what would you like to say to your new and current fans?
