Simply Red will release new album ‘Time’ on 26th May 2023 via Warner Music.
The lead single from the record, ‘Better With You’, is out now and you can watch the music video at the top of this article.
“On the song itself, I’m reminiscing on phase one of the relationship with my wife, when we first met in Milan. At that time, I was single and just partying my way around the world. And I thought to myself: well, I didn’t really know what I was doing. I was just going along, having a right old time. It just stemmed from there,” Mick Hucknall said of the track.
‘Time’ features 12 tracks that mix soul, funk, R&B and blues. The collection was recorded in London with longtime collaborator producer Andy Wright and Hucknall’s touring band.
The track listing for ‘Time’ is:
Better With You
Just Like You
Let Your Hair Down
Shades 22
