Quireboys - Wardour Street (2024)

Wardour Street is the upcoming studio album by English rock band the Quireboys. It is scheduled to be released on 25 October 2024 through Cadiz Music. The album is named after Wardour Street, a prominent street in London's Soho district known for its music venues and historic significance to the UK rock scene.

Formed in the mid 80s, in London, the Quireboys quickly established themselves on the thriving rock'n'roll scene of Soho, Camden and beyond. Always a great live band, they were perfecting their style and selling out the legendary Marquee Club and venues around the country long before they made a record, and when they finally released their first album A Bit Of What You Fancy, what an album it was. Reaching number 2 on the UK chart, it featured many of the songs they had been playing live since the beginning. A Bit Of What You Fancy is still revered to this day. The second album Bitter, Sweet And Twisted followed in 1993, after which the band entered a hiatus.

Now, in 2024, the Quireboys release their highly anticipated new album Wardour Street. Spike, Nigel, Chris and Rudy have kept true to their promise of making new Quireboys music after the sad passing of their best mate Guy Bailey. Stepping in on guitar is one of their oldest friends, the legendary Luke Morley from Thunder, who has also produced the album.

The album consists of 11 new original songs with that famous stripped down Quireboys rock'n'roll sound that hasn’t been heard since their first two albums. Included on the album are the singles Jeeze Louise, Raining Whiskey featuring Frankie Miller and the brand new single Happy.

So here it is, from where it all began, on Wardour Street, for one of the last true British rock'n'roll bands, and to where they are going now ….
