Texas celebrate their 25th Anniversary in style with the release of their latest album Texas 25 which celebrates the very best of the multi-million selling (over 30 million album sales so far), multi-platinum, Ivor Novello Award winning band.
Texas 25 contains four brand new songs and highlights from the bands greatest hits completely re-recorded and re-worked for 2015 with acclaimed NYC soul outfit Truth & Soul (Amy Winehouse, Adele).
Recorded in the Queens studio of Truth & Soul and mixed at The Black Key’s Dan Auerbach’s Nashville studios, working on Texas 25 was a chance for Texas frontwoman Sharleen Spiteri and band mate Johnny McElhone to hear Black Eyed Boy, Halo, I Don’t Want a Lover, Say What You Want, Summer Son, The Conversation with new ears. “It’s almost like we’ve got who we are, 25 years later,” says Sharleen.
In 2015, Texas will present the findings of their 25 years in pop in a new, intimate arrangement, ‘An Evening With.’ in which Sharleen will talk through her amazing career and the band will play as a four piece skiffle ensemble as punctuation points.
