Simply Red sings about 'Time' in May

Four years since the Blue Eyed Soul studio release, 
Simply Red return with 'Time,' out May 26 on Warner Music. New song, “Shades 22” is out now. Watch the video and listen here: https://SimplyRed.lnk.to/Shades22

Already released single “Better With You” here

Mick Hucknall said, “When we were in lockdown, I went, well, jeez, who am I actually?” he remembers. “What makes me tick? And I realized: you are a songwriter. So why don't you write some songs about who you are? That's really the essence of this album.”

With a career spanning 12 studio albums as Simply Red (five of them UK Number Ones), two solo albums, back-to-back ASCAP Most Performed Song honors (1987 and 1988) for Holding Back The Years, consecutive Brit Awards (1992 and 1993) for Best British Group, a Brit for Best British Male (1993), the 1997 MOBO for Outstanding Achievement, two Ivor Novellos (1992 Songwriter of the Year; 2002 Outstanding Song Collection), and some 60 million album sales, Mick is ready to continue the ride into the next chapter.

“Music is one of those wonderful communicators. Each and every person can have an interpretation of a song that can mean something to them. To be able to create something that is then shared with millions of people all over the world – what a joy. How can anything be more rewarding and fulfilling than that?”

A world tour commences in June in Europe.
