Boyzone album a tribute to Gately

BOYZONE will release a new album featuring Stephen Gately as a tribute to the late singer, the band said.

The group said Gately was “so excited” about making the album, and the remaining four band members will take comfort in being together as they complete it.

During their first interview as a “four-piece”, Ronan Keating told Sky News: “When we’re together we feel Stephen’s here, so as much as possible we feel the four of us want to be together. We just want to really get our teeth into this album, get moving on it and get it made.”
