Bryan Ferry to meet fans at HMV Oxford Street

Making a rare public appearance, Bryan Ferry will visit HMV's flagship store on Oxford Street in London's West End this coming Thursday 11th November.

The legendary Roxy Music frontman will be at the store from 5.30pm to meet fans and sign copies of his acclaimed new album Olympia, released through Virgin Records.

The album features Kate Moss on its cover, in a pose that draws inspiration from the Nineteenth Century impressionist painting of the same title by Edouard Manet.

Roxy Music will be embarking on their first UK tour in over a decade at the beginning of 2011; tickets, which are currently available through hmvtickets.com, can be purchased at the store's hmvtickets kiosk on the day.

The seven-date tour celebrates the band's 40th anniversary, and will feature the original line-up of Bryan Ferry, Phil Manzanera, Andy Mackay and Paul Thompson. See details below.
