Pet Shop Boys (Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe) are the most successful duo in UK music history. Since signing to Parlophone Records in1985, they have had 42 Top 30 singles and 22 Top 10 hits in the UK, including four number ones.

In 2000 they were presented with the Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music, whilst at the 2009 BRIT Awards they were presented with the award for Outstanding Contribution to Music.

As writers, producers and remixers, Tennant and Lowe have collaborated with artists including Dusty Springfield, Lady Gaga, Liza Minnelli, David Bowie, Yoko Ono, The Killers and Girls Aloud.

Pet Shop Boys have also written the West End musical Closer to Heaven with playwright Jonathan Harvey, produced in 2001 by the Really Useful Group. In 2004 they performed their soundtrack to the classic silent film, Battleship Potemkin, with the Dresden Sinfoniker in a free concert in Trafalgar Square presented by the ICA; they have since performed it at various spectacular outdoor events in Germany, Spain and the UK. In 2011, together with choreographer Javier De Frutos, they premiered their first ballet “The Most Incredible Thing” at Sadlers Wells in London with ‘The Guardian’ reporting that the production “stretches the concept of ballet into new terrain”.

In their live shows over the last 20 years, Pet Shop Boys have collaborated with directors, designers and artists including Derek Jarman, David Alden and David Fielding, Zaha Hadid, Sam Taylor-Wood and Es Devlin. Their recent arena tour, Pandemonium, was described in a five-star review in The Times as “the ravishing pop spectacle of the year”. Their current tour Electric opened in Mexico in March and tours the world from May onwards, reaching the UK in June.

It was recently announced by BBC Radio 2 that Pet Shop Boy’s album “Actually” had been voted one of the top 10 albums of all time by listeners.
Pet Shop Boys are currently finishing their brand new album “Electric” with producer Stuart Price. The album will be released on their own label x2 Records through Kobalt Label Services in July.
