Entering an exciting solo era, Olly Alexander’s impact on pop culture is undeniable.

Formerly releasing music as Years & Years, Olly earned two #1 UK albums and countless chart topping singles. He received a BAFTA nomination for It’s A Sin, which reshaped conversations on HIV/AIDS and queer life, he proudly represented the UK at Eurovision in 2024 and worked alongside icons like Elton John and Kylie.

Olly’s upcoming solo album Polari is a pop album for the ages, looking back on history as a means to learn more about yourself.
