Boyzone were an Irish boy band (pop group) of the 1990s. They had major success in the UK and levels of success in parts of Europe and Asia with six #1 hit singles in the UK. Boyzone had sold over 10 million records and they parted ways in 2000.
Biography
Boyzone were similar to Take That, and took over from them once they quit in 1996. Boyzone opened the door for Westlife. Since their split in 1999, only Ronan Keating has made a career from going solo. The rest of the band either going into the wilderness, or appearing on reality tv. Rumours were rife in 2003 of a Boyzone reunion, and with Take That recently reforming, there may still be a chance that they may release a new album in the near future. However all of which would depend on the willingness of Ronan.
