The outfit will visit the BIC on Thursday, September 25, as part of their UK and Ireland tour. The band will release their new studio album, The Great Western Road, on March 21. 2025 marks 40 years since Ricky Ross met Dougie Vipond and they started to form Deacon Blue.
The songs on The Great Western Road reflect the journey the band has taken. Ricky Ross said: “It’s just the next part of the adventure and it’s as exciting now as it was back in 1988.” The Great Western Road, recorded at the legendary Rockfield Studios, sees Ricky Ross and (Deacon Blue guitarist and long-term collaborator) Gregor Philp return to production duties, having last produced the band’s top 5 charting and their last full length album, City Of Love in 2020.
The band’s best known hits include Dignity, Real Gone Kid and Chocolate Girl. Tickets for the tour go on sale at 10am on November 29..
