BOWIE It would have been David Bowie’s 71st birthday this January. Still unbelievable that he is no longer with us, he still, and will always remain supreme, the originator. His son, Duncan Jones, paid tribute to his late father and an early demo of ‘Let’s Dance’ was released to celebrate Bowie’s birthday. Since Bowie’s death in 2016, fans in the UK have bought over 5 million records including 3.1 million singles. His 25th and final studio album Blackstar was released just two days before his death and went on to be one of the top ten biggest albums of 2016, making it Bowie's most popular album since his death.

MUSIC NEWS: MOTÖRHEAD REUNITES FOR LEMMY Phil Campbell of Motörhead has just confirmed that there are plans to reunite members of the band for a series of concerts featuring special guests filling in for the late Lemmy. “It’s on the cards, but it’s just gonna be a few select shows,” the guitarist told Rock Talk With Mitch Lafon. “We’re not gonna be touring with it. We’re gonna get these people involved… and we’ll just do some special shows worldwide, which will be good – a tribute to Lem and to the band maybe, but it wouldn’t be an ongoing thing.

During their career they have made 21 studio albums, have sold over 13.5 million records in the US alone and were indicted into the Rock n Roll hall of fame in 2017. The band will be 50 this year and have planned a very special anniversary tour starting this March in the UK then across to Europe. Although band members have changed over the decades, the band’s iconic logo hasn’t. Designed by artist Roger Dean, the band’s artwork is stunning and remains current and fresh. Using colour and texture, the YES logo would look amazing on any garment. Colour is key this year, and what better way to show it off…YES! ROSTER ALERT: YES Contact: [email protected]
