Simple Minds Original Line-Up To Reunite

The original members of Simple Minds will work together for the first time in 27 years when they enter a recording studio next month.

The week-long reformation will see Brian McGee, Derek Forbes, Mick McNeil, Jim Kerr and Charlie Burchill work on at least two new tracks- the first for the line-up since 1981’s ‘Sons of Fascination’/’Sister Feelings Call’ dual release.

“Of course I am excited with the prospect of working with the original line-up once more,” said frontman Kerr, “I had always believed that the day would come when we would get the opportunity to do so.

"We have a lot to live up to, but we intend to have some fun attempting to do just that."
