I’m going to out myself as a bit of a dag now, but I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for Simply Red. Their Life world tour was one of the first concerts that I ever attended; I went in as a casual fan and left absolutely loving them.
I was a bit sad to see them perform their Farewell tour last year, but thankfully they’re making another stop in Australia before they call it a day. Simply Red will play entertainment centres, theatres, and wineries around the country this October.
If you haven’t witnessed the power of Mick Hucknall’s voice in the flesh, or just how tight this band is live, make sure you snap up tickets when they go on sale on July 12.
