Munich. Yesterday evening, the British pop singer Olly Murs presented his new album "Never Been Better" at an exclusive gig in the BMW Welt auditorium. Several fans even came from France and Austria to see the 30-year-old artist live on stage. In addition to songs from his fourth album, released on November 21, he thrilled the audience with renditions of recent hits such as "Heart Skips a Beat" and "Dear Darlin’" as well as his new hit single “Wrapped Up”. The audience was delighted by his performance, the nine-strong band and the lightshow in the BMW Welt.
From X Factor to chart topper
Olly Murs shot to fame by coming second in "The X Factor" on UK TV in 2009. He made his breakthrough in Germany in 2012 with "Heart Skips a Beat" which went to No. 1 in the singles chart. With three multi-platinum albums and four No. 1 hits, Olly Murs is one of the most successful pop stars in the UK in recent years.
Events at BMW Welt
BMW Welt organizes and hosts a wide-ranging program of events from the worlds of culture, art and entertainment. The concept is based on the different brands which send out invitations to their own events, such as the BMW Welt Jazz Award and the MINI Club Series. The Event Forum makes BMW Welt a popular location for up to 450 external events each year with more than 45,000 guests attending congresses, seminars, film premieres and award ceremonies. It is also regularly used for special concerts such as the opening concerts for the Long Night of Music in Munich and the exclusive appearance of two-time Grammy winner Frank Ocean last year. In 2013, BMW Welt was presented with the Location Award as the best design location in Germany.
