New Steps Single Collection Album Hits #1

After a break of 10 years, the multimillion pound award-winning pop sensation Steps are back at the top of the charts for the first time since 2001’s ‘Gold: Greatest Hits’

Pop icons Claire, ‘H’, Faye, Lisa and Lee have reunited for a TV documentary series on Shy Living and a new Ultimate Collection celebrating their biggest, chart topping hits - featuring brand new bonus track ‘Dancing Queen’. The band is also taking to the road again in April next year, for some spectacular new shows culminating in 2 nights at London’s O2 Arena. But if you want to catch them live, make sure you grab your tickets quick - they sold 80,000 tickets during the first few hours of being on sale.

On Sunday they were revealed as #1 in the Official Album Charts – meaning Steps have now had a Number 1 Album in each of the last 3 consecutive decades. The group spoke of their surprise of still having a faithful and strong following of fans – describing the feeling as unbelievable.

“We are genuinely shocked,” the group admitted. “To receive such overwhelming love from our fans in such a positive way is unbelievable and even sweeter the second time around.”

Nick Gatfield, CEO of Sony Music, agreed and was pleased that a whole new generation have been introduced to the ‘Tragedy’ singers. “I’m incredibly proud of the superb marketing job done by Sony CMG – they’ve introduced Steps to a whole new group of fans.”

Tickets for their reunion tour are selling at crazy speed – so if you’re hoping to catch them, make sure you buy tickets now. Check below for the dates and details.
