Andy Bell - Ten Crowns - (CD Album)

Andy Bell (Erasure) releases a new solo album, “Ten Crowns”, on May 2nd. The new album features 10 brand new tracks of dazzling, joyous pop, inspired by the dancefloor and gospel, which includes an incredible collaboration with Andy Bell's idol Debbie Harry. 'Ten Crowns' was written with, and produced by, the Grammy-winning US producer, remixer and DJ, Dave Audé.
The first track released, ‘Breaking Thru the Interstellar’, is also the track that opens the album with a cosmic flash, and sees Andy dance us “towards another paradise… ready for a new dimension/On our galactic journey”. Inspired by Andy’s love of reading BBC science magazines, and the possible existence of wormholes that allow travel through space, the song also reminds him of Boney M’s ‘Nightflight to Venus’ and Leila K’s ‘Open Sesame’. “It's on first because I wanted to let people know we're going to go for a ride now, you know!”
The single CD edition of the album comes with lyric book plus a SIGNED art card (one signed art card per product).
"Andy Bell - Ten Crowns" is out Friday, 2nd May 2025 on Crown Records.

It's a shame Aftermath, True Original & Runaway couldn't have been bonus tracks, maybe on the 2CD. It would have been nice to finally have them physically

Good to see that (at least the single track) it is mixed in Dolby Atmos unlike any Erasure release. For that luxury I forget about the artwork.

If this is in Dolby Atmos just maybe Suoerdeluxeedition may well release it on BluRay disc,they have done quite a few classic 80’s albums and a few new releases they normally have the album,instrumental versions along with 5.1 and stereo mixes too.

Yes for the top bundle. So many bundle options,what amused me was on the Mute site the single disc option is only £10!,but next to it is Non Stop CD for £12.

It could of course be an Apple Music exclusive for the time being.
