Time is the thirteenth studio album by British pop group Simply Red, released on 26 May 2023 through Warner Music.[1] It was produced by Andy Wright,[2] and preceded by the singles "Better with You",[3] "Shades 22"[4] and "Just Like You".[5] The band will perform an intimate gig on 5 June 2023 at O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire to celebrate the album's launch,[6] as well as continuing their tour of Europe in mid-2023.[1]
Background and recording
The album's lyrics have been described as "confessional", with Mick Hucknall stating: "When we were in lockdown, I went, 'well, jeez, who am I actually? What makes me tick?' And I realised: 'you are a songwriter. So why don't you write some songs about who you are?' That's really the essence of this album."[3] The album was recorded in London with the band's long-time producer Andy Wright, with the resulting sound described as a mix of "soul, funk, R&B and blues".[7]
