Susan Boyle TEN

The Sensational New Album

Singing sensation Susan Boyle is celebrating a decade in the music industry with her stunning new album TEN, set for release on May 31st through SYCO | Sony Music Entertainment Australia and available to pre-order now.

TEN comprises of 17 tracks including Susan's favourite recordings from the past 10 years plus four never-heard-before tracks which, in her inimitable style are being kept a surprise for her fans.

Talking about TEN, Susan said; "I am really proud of this album, it has my favourite tracks from over the years and I hope you get as much joy out of it as I have had working on it and choosing the song.

"I'm a lady who likes to surprise, which is why I want to keep the four new songs a secret for now and give you something to look forward to! We live in a time where there are very few surprises anymore. I promise you won't be disappointed."

Susan's eighth studio album continues to cement her status as the most successful recording artist from the Got Talent brand and heralds a huge twelve months for the artist.

January 2019 saw Susan step back into the public eye performing her iconic rendition of 'Wild Horses' on America's Got Talent: The Champions, and saw her receive the coveted golden buzzer, sending her straight into the finals. This Thursday February 14th will see her finals performance on the show as it airs on Fox 8 from 7:30pm – 9:30pm AEST. For a sneak preview, head here to watch! The rest of 2019 looks set to be just as incredible with performances, TV specials and her new album.

The remarkable story of Susan Boyle proves time and time again that there is more to this woman than just being a fleeting reminder to "never to judge a book by its cover". Ten years ago, she stepped on to the BGT audition stage, dazzled her way through 'I Dreamed A Dream' and in the blink of an eye went from unknown to global star having surprised the judges, audience and anyone with access to YouTube.

Her list of achievements is compelling reading; over 23 million albums sold, 227 million audio streams, over 650 million YouTube hits. In 2009 Susan's audition video was the most watched YouTube video ever, beating President Obama's inauguration five times over. Susan's accolades include two Grammy nominations, 3 Guinness World Records, #1 albums in 40 plus countries, 128 platinum and gold album certifications, and being ranked amongst the likes of Beyoncé, Adele and Taylor Swift by having three or more #1 albums in the UK.

TEN was produced in Glasgow by Cliff Masterson and Steve Anderson. The duo worked with Susan on her last four albums and are highly regarded producers known for their work with Lionel Richie, Kylie Minogue, Emeli Sandé, and Westlife to name a few.
