Simply Red makes stunning return with Time

Simply Red are back! Four years since the triumphant Blue Eyed Soul, one of the U.K.'s most treasured bands return with a brand new studio album Time — out May 26 on Warner Music. A new song, "Shades 22" is released, joining the first promoted single from the album "Better With You."

Over 12 vivid, heartfelt, life-giving tracks that mix soul, funk, R&B and blues, Time demonstrates an unerring ear for, feel for and passion for songs that move the emotion and the imagination. Recorded in London with longstanding producer Andy Wright and the close-knit cadre of musicians with whom he's formed a matchless touring band, Mick Hucknall is back — and not just with the label, Warner Music, with whom he began Simply Red's musical adventure. He's writing from, and about, himself.

"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 U.K. 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.
