Simply Red - Summer'2225th June 2022, 16:00 to 22:30 at Earlham Park
With over a billion hits on YouTube, and over 60 million albums worldwide, 5 going to number one in the UK, we couldn’t be more excited about Simply Red!
Their 1991 classic “Stars” was the best-selling album for two years running in Britain and Europe. They have had two US Billboard chart toppers with classic singles “Holding Back The Years” and “If You Don’t Know Me By Now” - and every Simply Red studio album has been a UK top ten.
On his remarkable voice, Mick Hucknall says “I always want to push my voice a little harder, challenge it a little bit, give myself something to really sing to.” Hucknall has long since established himself as one of the great vocalists of contemporary music, with a raw honey and whiskey tone, and a sinuous flow that can shift from the tender sensuality to full on roaring power in a heartbeat. “It’s deepened a little bit but I’ve kept the high end, so I can still hit those notes. Singing is pure pleasure to me.”
Catch Simply Red live at Earlham Park on Saturday 25th June 2022.
