Bryan Ferry Debuts New Album 'Olympia' At Intimate London Gig

October 27, 2010

Bryan Ferry debuted his new solo album at an intimate gig in London last night.

The Roxy Music frontman played five tracks from 'Olympia' during the private gig at art dealership Phillips de Pury & Company.

Ferry, who was surrounded by images of the album's Kate Moss-featuring cover, was accompanied by his full band, as well two backing dancers.

He kicked off his set with first single 'You Can Dance', before playing 'Shameless' and current single 'Heartache By Numbers'.

Ferry spoke sparingly, expect to thank those who had helped him record the album, which was released this week.

He then surprised the already-excited crowd by closing his performance with his classic hit, 'Let's Stick Together'.
