Irreverent, satirical, melodic and romantic, the duo consisting of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, who met in an electronics shop on the Kings Road in Chelsea, London in August 1981, have sold over 50 million records worldwide.

Since 1986 they have achieved 42 Top 30 singles and 22 Top 10 hits in the UK Singles Chart, including four number ones: "West End Girls", "It's a Sin", "Always on My Mind" and "Heart". There is so much to say about them and their work, but we decided to let the music speak for itself.
On behalf of SonarRadio and exclusively for Sónar Festival, written and selected by Shar Cunningham and mixed by Julian Tapias, we present 'The Story of the Pet Shop Boys in 17 tracks'.
We hope you enjoy the podcast, and we hope you'll take the 'opportunity' to come along and enjoy the show at Sónar 's 20th birthday celebration.

Pet Shop Boys Sónar by Night Saturday 15th June at 22.45. Get there early!
