About this album

True Confessions is a sharp, hook-heavy step in Bananarama’s move from underground pop into glossy mainstream synth-pop. Released in 1986, the album blends the group’s cheeky harmonies with the slicker, more radio-ready production associated with Stock Aitken Waterman, giving songs like ‘Venus’ and ‘Trick of the Night’ a polished, dancefloor-friendly edge. ‘Venus’ became one of the trio’s biggest international hits and helped define their crossover appeal, while the album as a whole captures the moment when British female pop groups were reshaping charts with style, energy and a very modern sense of fun.
