BILLY Ocean is heading out on tour in 2017 following the success of his latest album Here You Are: The Best Of Billy Ocean.

He is busy celebrating after his album went to number four, becoming his highest charting album since 1989.

The Caribbean Queen star is Britain’s biggest selling black artist of all time, with a string of multi-platinum hits.

Currently on an international tour, Billy Ocean has announced a huge run of UK headline dates for 2017 where he will be performing all of his greatest hits from the new album and favourite tracks.

The two CD set features a personal collection of Billy’s interpretations of songs which helped the young Leslie Charles become the Billy Ocean we all know today, alongside a career spanning celebration of his biggest hits.

Billy said: “I’m humbled by the success of this album am grateful that people continue to find joy in my music. I have so many people to thank, but I owe this one to my fans.”
