The band’s remix of “I Owe You Nothing” released in June 1988 reached the UK Singles Chart at number one and is their only UK number one to date. The band achieved UK success which was dubbed “Brosmania”. Logan announced his departure from the band in 1999 due to illness. The Goss brothers remained as a Duo and announced their split in 1992.

Goss embarked on a solo career in 1995 and released his debut single “The Key” which reached number 40 in the UK Singles Chart. Goss has released 4 solo albums to date, “The Key” (1995), “Early Side of Later” (2004), “Gossy” (2009) and “Life You Imagine” (2013).

Goss held a successful residency in Las Vegas for 10 years and toured in the UK notably at both the Royal Albert Hall and Wembley Arena. The musician reunited with his brother Luke for their 2018 documentary “After The Screaming Stops”.

The documentary was credited by GQ Magazine as the best documentary of all time. The documentary charted at number one on the  UK’s Official Music Video Chart. UK Tour dates were announced as a result of the documentaries success.

The clues provided by Goss seem to suggest that new solo material will be released this month. Goss has promised to explain his cryptic clues soon.

Then there was Bros fashion. Ripped jeans, leather jackets, and Grolsch bottle tops attached to their shoes. Many copied the Goss brothers’ spiky hairdo to add to the Bros look!

Luke Goss had this to say about their anticipated 30th anniversary concert:

“I’ve always wanted it to happen in my heart. But I wanted it to be the right time.

“I didn’t want to resist it any more,” Luke told reporters. The brothers said it will be “a contemporary show that stands up.

“We’re going to honour the songs, some of the key sounds,” continued Luke.

“But at this stage, I don’t want to populate the show with new stuff. If it was to happen again [after that] then maybe so.”

Remember the third member – Nick Logan? He will not be joining the reunion and left the band at just 19 not wanting the fame that would follow. What did follow were royalty lawsuits. He won a million-pound settlement, and, ironically his new found experience of the financial and legal side of the music industry propelled him into a new career. Nick said:

“I never, ever wanted to be famous, OK? Even though the title of the song said it all, that was never my intention. Whereas the other two guys, they really wanted to be famous. The scrutiny was too much and maybe I wasn’t emotionally and mentally mature enough to deal with it at that age.”

At the time Nick Logan was dating pop star Kim Appleby (from Mel & Kim), whose twin sister (Mel) was losing the battle to cancer. The combination of pressurised fame alongside family bereavement was too much.

Today, Nick Logan runs his own company Logan Media Entertainment (LME) and represents artists such as Anastacia, former JLS’s Aston, Cher Lloyd, and Dido.

Bros initially released the single ‘I Owe You Nothing’ in 1987 reaching just Number 88 in the UK Charts. This was later reissued in the same year and became their first and only UK Number One. It was ‘When Will I Be Famous?’ which immediately stormed Bros into the spotlight reaching Number 2. ‘Drop The Boy’ followed; also peaking at Number Two. The catchy ‘I Quit’ continued momentum achieving Number Four in 1988 from their debut album Push.

Apart from remixes and ‘Best ofs’, Bros released three studio albums. Following Push was The Time (1989), and Changing Faces (1991).

Tickets go on sale this Friday (7 October).
