This is not a dream – a boyband fantasy is about to come true! Boyzone’s Keith Duffy and Westlife’s Brian McFadden have joined forces to form the ultimate supergroup, Boyzlife!
Boyzlife, who are backed and funded by Hilton hotels, will be performing Boyzone and Westlife’s greatest hits during a 12-date tour of the UK and Ireland. The boys discussed the possibility of this happening, whilst at Boyzone star Ronan Keating’s wedding last year.
In a press release, Keith said: “Brian and I have been talking about this for a while so it’s really exciting to finally be able to reveal Boyzlife. We can’t wait to get out on the road and reconnect with our fans, taking a trip down memory lane.”
Brian added: “Keith and I have always been great friends and we’ve wanted to work together for quite a while now. With the amount of stories between us we knew it would make for a great live show, mixed in with a few songs!”
Brian was a member of Westlife until 2004, when he decided to leave the band. The group continued without him until 2012. Most recently, Brian has been seen as a contestant on The Jump. Keith, who had a role in Coronation Street, was a member of Boyzone from 1993–2000, before reuniting with the group when they reformed in 2008.
Whilst Boyzlife consists of just Keith and Brian for the time being, the door is open for the other members to join in too. Brian said, “Can you imagine the craic? Nine of us Irish lads on a tour bus together, going round the world together. It would be absolute carnage. We all get on so well so you never know. We would have so much fun on tour. We could end up adding more people to the next one. Right now this is about me and Keith but the door is always open.”
