Olly Alexander announces new European tour for 2025. It all started in the shower. When Michael Goldsworthy, Noel Leeman, Olivier Subria and Emre Trkmen were struggling to find a vocalist for their new band, they found what they needed at a friend's house, when they overheard Olly Alexander in the bathroom, singing in the shower. That was the beginning of Years & Years, and the start of Alexander's path to pop superstardom. Releasing their first record, I Wish I Knew, in 2012 as a five-piece, Years & Years gained momentum with their 2013 debut EP, Traps, after signing a deal with French label Kitsun as a three-piece. In 2014, the group announced they had signed a deal with Polydor before releasing their second EP, Real. That same year, Years & Years released multiple singles including Take Shelter and Desire. The group won the BBC Sound Of award in 2015 before embracing the momentum to release their first full-length album, Communion. The album topped the charts in the UK and reached similar highs in the Irish and US dance charts. The album also featured lead singles King and Shine which nabbed the No.1 and No.2 spots on the UK charts, respectively. In 2021, Years & Years announced that their upcoming album would be a solo project by Olly Alexander the same year he starred in his biggest and most influential role to date, as the lead in Russell T Davies' landmark It's A Sin. Chief amongst the many awards the show won was the accolade of raising global awareness of HIV, with The Terrence Higgins Trust charity seeing a a huge influx in donations after the show aired. By April that year, Alexander had released the single Starstruck with a remix of the song featuring Kylie Minogue following in May. Alexander and Minogue returned with another collaboration for Kylies Disco album later that year called A Second To Midnight. In September, the band released the single Crave and the studio album, Night Call, was released in early 2022 at the top of the UK album charts. A Night Call tour followed, as did the decision to retire the name Years & Years and press ahead with new music under Olly Alexander's own name. First up was one of the biggest jobs in pop: representing the UK at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest. Alexander's Eurovision entry, 'Dizzy' landed the UK 18th in the contest final in May 2024, and set the stage for the next chapter in Alexander's career with Polari set to be his first studio album under his own name, backed by a huge European tour in 2025.
