In 2016 he released Together, a collaborative effort with close friend and singer Alfie Boe, that featured performances of classic songs. The album became the UK’s best-selling album of 2016 and beat Little Mix and The Rolling Stones to the Christmas No.1 spot. Ball and Boe then released Together Again which brought the pair yet another No.1 album in 2017, and Back Together which landed them the No.2 spot in the Official Albums Chart. In 2020, Michael and Alfie released their first festive album, Together at Christmas, featuring both old favourites and originals. Thanks to their latest release Together in Vegas, which entered the UK album chart at No.3 in October 2022, they have now sold over 1.5 million albums in the UK, received two Classic Brit Awards, sold out two headline arena tours and presented three ITV Specials. During lockdown, Michael started to pen new material – inspired by his work for charity and community (such as his interview and duet with the late Captain Sir Tom Moore) the result was We Are More Than One, his most personal album. After learning how to write and record remotely, every track had an inspiring story to tell. His debut novel, The Empire, was published in Autumn 2022 and became a Sunday Times Bestseller.
