The nation’s favourite and most-loved musical duo Michael Ball and Alfie Boe have announced their Together At Home tour
Actor and singer Michael Ball and tenor Alfie Boe met, somewhat appropriately, in a production of Kismet at the London Coliseum in 2007. The duo’s instant camaraderie and professional mutual admiration proved to be the start of a long-standing and incredibly successful partnership.
With decorated careers in theatre and opera, Ball & Boe suddenly added chart superstars to their bow. Their first album, Together, went to No.1 in the UK album charts in 2016, eventually going double platinum.
Their follow-up came just a year later, with Together Again also going to No.1 in the UK. Their third collaboration, Back Together, followed in 2019, this time peaking at No.2 in the UK album charts. In between albums, Ball & Boe embarked on sold-out arena tours and presented two televised ITV specials.
In October 2020, the duo announced they would be reuniting for a Ball & Boe Christmas album, Together At Christmas, due for release in November 2020. The album featured a host of traditional festive favourites and a guest appearance from Gregory Porter. A 2021 Ball & Boe UK tour was also announced, which would see their impressive voices tour arenas around the country in time for Christmas 2021.
As a duo, they have now sold over 1.3 million albums in the UK, received two Classic Brit Awards, sold out two headline arena tours and presented three ITV Specials.
In 2024 the pair announced their sixth studio album, Together At Home – set for release on 8 November. Billed as "a hymn to the people and places that mean the most to them", the record includes covers of Paul Simon's 'Homeward Bound', Heather Small's 'Proud', Gerry Marsden's 'Ferry Cross The Mersey', Ewan MacColl's 'Dirty Old Town', Take That's 'Rule The World' and more.
In 2025 Ball & Boe take Together At Home on the road across the UK for a huge run of arena headline shows in March and April, including a night at London’s The O2 on 13 April.
