**New York City, NY** – Boy George, the iconic frontman of Culture Club, is currently on a co-headlining U.S. tour with Squeeze, showcasing a side of his artistry that goes beyond the band’s 80s hits. During his recent performance at Central Park Summerstage, George surprised audiences with a setlist that delved into his extensive solo career, demonstrating his eclectic musical tastes and impressive vocal range.

While only three Culture Club songs graced the stage, including a soulful rendition of “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me,” George’s solo material held its own. The set featured jazz-fusion rock like “Mine Your Own Existence,” reflective ballads such as “King of Everything,” and even a cover of Gary Numan’s “Are ‘Friends’ Electric.” George’s unique blend of soul, funk, and rock was evident throughout the show, showcasing his evolution as a singer and songwriter.

The concert also saw George playfully incorporating hits from other artists, such as a medley of “Church of the Poison Mind” with Wham!’s “I’m Your Man” and a combination of “Bigger Than War” with the Rolling Stones’ “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” and Lou Reed’s “Walk on the Wild Side.”

This tour offers a fresh perspective on Boy George, one that emphasizes his solo work and artistic depth. While Culture Club remains a beloved act, this tour serves as a reminder of George’s enduring talent and his ability to captivate audiences with his diverse musical repertoire.
