EARLY YEARS
To date, Westlife have sold over 34 million records
globally, had five multi-platinum albums in the UK alone and have scored a
record breaking 12 UK number ones. Add to this two BRIT Awards, an MTV Europe
Award and 6 Irish Meteor Awards, including four consecutive years as Best Pop
Act and you have one of the biggest pop acts of all time. They have performed to
over three million fans on four sell-out arena tours to become the biggest
selling arena tour act ever.
Not content with this, Ireland’s most successful
chart group recently opened a sensational new chapter with Allow Us To Be Frank.
Adopting the smooth sound and look of the original Rat Pack, Westlife
reinterpreted the trio’s catalogue of classics in a spellbinding tribute.
In addition they secured the first ever Official
Download Chart Number 1 with a live version of Flying Without Wings and picked
up another prize at the World Music Awards in Las Vegas as Ireland’s
best-selling act of the year.
