The multi-million selling global star’s career is one of two remarkable chapters. Back in 1987, he gained international recognition with the release of ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’, which reached the top of charts worldwide and won him a BRIT Award. He achieved further success with singles like ‘Whenever You Need Somebody’ and ‘Together Forever’.

His debut album, ‘Whenever You Need Somebody’, sold 15.2m copies worldwide and made him a household name. He then stepped away from the spotlight and seemed to leave that part of his life behind.

Rick Astley’s second chapter started when he celebrated his half-century by returning to the top of the charts with 2016s ‘50’. The singer-songwriter and producer has stayed at the top of his game ever since, leading to collaborations with the likes of Foo Fighters and Blossoms, a double bill of festival sets at Glastonbury, and a No.2 chart position for his new album ‘Are We There Yet?’.

He has gone on to release eight studio albums, sold over 40 million records worldwide, and performed around the world multiple times.

After taking a break in 2025, Rick Astley is ready to head back out on tour in 2026!
