Murphys, CA…Billy Idol was an early architect of the sound, style, and fury of punk rock. His lip- curling sneer and fist-pumping persona vaulted him into the mainstream as one of MTV\u2019s first megastars, making him one of the most recognizable faces in pop music, while selling out arenas everywhere he played. He has sold 40 million albums while scoring numerous platinum albums worldwide, nine top forty singles in the U.S. and 10 in the U.K. including \u201cDancing With Myself, \u201cWhite Wedding,\u201d \u201cRebel Yell,\u201d \u201cMony Mony,\u201d \u201cEyes Without A Face,\u201d \u201cFlesh For Fantasy,\u201d and \u201cCradle Of Love.\u201d<\/p>\n

Billy was responsible for some of punk rock\u2019s most memorable, literate, and evocative moments and created a pioneering new sound by bringing the spirit of \u201977 to the dance floor, going on
\nto fashion an immediately identifiable musical blueprint that integrates club-land throb, rockabilly desperation, and rock\u2019n\u2019roll decadence. Idol returned to the spotlight in the fall of 2014 with two high profile releases that marked the latest chapter in the long and remarkable story of a musician, an inventor, a survivor, a father, a son, a man who returned from the brink, and a rebel whose yells made the mainstream sit up and pay attention.<\/p>\n

Idol\u2019s New York Times bestselling autobiography Dancing With Myself is an electric, intelligent, brutally honest and entirely self-written account of Billy Idol\u2019s journey to fame, from his early days as front man of the pioneering UK punk band Generation X to a long and often decadent life lived loving sex, drugs, rock\u2019n\u2019roll, and motorcycles.<\/p>\n

Kings & Queens of the Underground was Billy\u2019s first album of new material in nearly a decade. The album\u2019s palette, which includes incredible contributions from Idol\u2019s longtime collaborator and lead guitarist Steve Stevens, will be instantly familiar to lovers of classic Billy Idol, while announcing a firm step into the future. Produced by Trevor Horn (with two tracks co-written and produced by 2017 Grammy Producer of The Year winner Greg Kurstin), it is full of thumping, cinematic songs about sin, redemption and the love of rock\u2019n\u2019roll.<\/p>\n

Billy Idol, together with his band featuring Steve Stevens, have been touring heavily during the past five years, headlining theatres and arenas and performing at major festivals all over the world.<\/p>\n
