On Monday 22nd March 2010, his first single of 2010, Amazing Grace, is released by MN2S new label, Decode Records. Written by Boy George, John Themis & Roland Faber and produced & mixed by Kinky Roland, the single also features additional vocals by the critically acclaimed Portuguese singer Ana Lains. Amazing Grace will be released as a digital download, a CD single and as a limited edition vinyl picture disc. The release features club re-mixes by Sharp Boys, Filo & Peri, and Mac & Taylor, and the acoustic version features Jamiroquai's Rob Harris on guitar. MN2S: "It's really great to be releasing music from such a seminal and iconic artist; we've never experienced such a buzz on a single before."
Boy George needs little introduction. He first shot to international stardom in the 1980's as the front man of one of the UK's biggest exports - Culture Club. He has sold over 50 million albums and has had top 10 hits in every country. Singer, actor, DJ, artist, photographer, fashion designer, he has constantly reinvented himself and remains today one of the world's most recognisable iconic figures. He recently started a new monthly drink & drug-free night club DOSE at Proud Camden.
