‘I’m match-fit and ready to go,’ he tells ED!
The last time the four-piece performed together was in 2019 for their Thank You & Goodnight Tour.
Keith Duffy teases Boyzone farewell London shows
Despite the concerts just days away, Keith revealed to ED!, on behalf of Zingo Bingo, who offer several retro, nostalgic and music-themed bingo rooms, that rehearsals for the huge shows have yet to take place.
“To be honest with you, we haven’t even started rehearsals yet, and I’m feeling great about it,” he said while laughing.
However, it’s not something the 51-year-old is concerned about.
“At the end of the day, you know, I’m gigging all the time with Brian McFadden and Boyzlife, so I’m match-fit and ready to go,” he added.
“It’s been a long time since I performed with Boyzone, I think the last time was 2019. I’m really excited about getting back on stage with the boys, 33 years later after we started, it’s going to be very exciting. I’m glad that I’m as busy as I am with Boyzlife because it just makes me feel more confident about jumping on stage for the 60,000 people for these massive shows.”
‘I absolutely love working with Brian’
Following Boyzone, Keith plans to keep performing with former Westlife singer Brian McFadden as part of supergroup Boyzlife.
“I absolutely love working with Brian. In fact, he’s really helped bring my confidence up, because, unlike Boyzone, it’s the two of us carrying the show, and that gets you ready,” he said.
So far, the duo have released two studio albums. And according to Keith, more material is on its way.
“We’re writing and recording new music, too. Our new song is finished, and Radio 2 have been so good
to us, they’ve played our last four songs that we’ve written and recorded, and the fifth one that’s coming out soon, I think it’s our best work so far. It’s definitely the best song I’ve ever written,” he explained.
“I can’t wait to get back on stage with the boys, but I love what we’re doing with Boyzlife too.”
