Fans who can’t wait to see the star in glittering action have a chance to snag tickets now, if they pre-order the new album by 31 October. The general sale for the tour will open just a few days later, on the 3 November.

Venus has already become a promising record. The album, which will be released by Larsson’s own label Sommer House and Black Butter/Sony, includes hits such as the lead single “Can’t Tame Her” and “On My Love”. The first single from the new album has become an international success – charting in multiple countries, including number one in Bulgaria and number 25 on the UK Singles Chart. The track, which has over 100 million streams on Spotify, was also certified Silver in the UK for selling over 200 thousand copies and hit Platinum in the star’s home country.

Watch “Can’t Tame Her.”

“On My Love”, which features global hit-maker David Guetta, has also been a commercial success. The song, which is a Dance-pop style track, peaked at number 38 on the UK Singles Chart and at number 23 on the UK Dance Chart.

The “Lush Life” singer excited fans with the news of the new album and tour, which will kick-start for her UK supporters in Manchester on 16 February. Larsson took to X to share the announcement: “VENUS, FEBRUARY 9TH, 2024 https://zaralarssonofficial.com”

One person commented: “ZARAAA ARE YOU GOING TO TRANSPORT ME TO VENUS?? CAUSE I WANT THAT”, whilst another person wrote: “IM SO EXCITED OMG OMG OMG THANK YOU.” 

Watch “On My Love.” 

The new LP will follow up from Larsson’s third studio album titled Poster Girl. The 2021 record was a great success for the popstar who burst onto the scene a few years ago with the anthem “Lush Life”. Poster Girl was described by Emma Swann from DIY as “pure pop escapism.” Nick Levine from NME said: “The singer’s third album, veering from elegant electro-pop to grittier R&B, was well worth the wait. When she sings “this girl’s having fun”, you believe her” and gave the record 4 out of 5 stars.

“Venus,” itself a cover by Dutch rock band Shocking Blue, was a considerable hit for Bananarama, making the dance floor hit a global sensation and earning the trio a top ten place in the UK charts. Now, Boys Noize has taken a turn reworking the single and has added his own, high speed spin on the track-ensuring the song is a hit on the dance floor once again.

Boys Noize of his newest release, “when the request came in I was quite excited to take this on. I really enjoyed the challenge making the classic work in my DJ sets, speeding it up and making it pop on new sound systems. Besides the vocals, some of the original worked really well in my new musical dress too-it’s really fun to play this one!”

Formed in London and Ireland in 1980, Bananarama were an unprecedented success for an all female pop/dance group, announcing themselves on the scene with a top ten collaboration with Fun Boy Three on “It Ain’t What You Do (It’s The Way That You Do It).” The group would have similar chart topping success throughout the 80s with songs such as “Cruel Summer,” “Love In The First Degree,” and “I Want You Back.”

By the early 1990s, the group became a duo, continuing on with original members Sara Dallin and Keren Woodward-the pair remaining active as Bananarama to this day. The group released their latest album Masquerade in 2022. Celebrating 40 years, Bananarama have released a re-mix of their hit song “Cruel Summer” as well as “Venus” by Boys Noize.

Boys Noize, also known by his given name, Alex Ridha, is a German-Iraqi record producer and songwriter. Having notable success as a DJ, Boys Noize has received high praise from a number of music outlets, with many citing him as one of the best currently active DJs in the world. Boys Noize has also produced records for Kano, The Black-Eyed Peas and Kelis as well as winning a Grammy Award for Lady Gaga’s “Rain On Me,” featuring Ariana Grande.

Boys Noize will be playing a live show in London this October with VTSS. Tickets can be purchased here.
