On the 11th of November Simple Minds will release SIMPLE MINDS ACOUSTIC, a one-off album release of stripped down and re-imagined songs spanning their eclectic and illustrious career.
On SIMPLE MINDS ACOUSTIC the band have found a way of doing the acoustic thing without losing their essence, and a dozen Simple Minds songs loved by millions now sound more organic and even more likely to leave a lasting imprint. The synths are no more – but the Celtic soul remains.On the lead single Promised You A Miracle, the band are joined by fellow Scot KT Tunstall, whose distinctive vocals, acoustic strumming and rolling bass groove transform a piece of music that was the band’s first ‘pure pop song’ when it arrived in 1982.
Simple Minds – “Promised You A Miracle”. Taken from the new album SIMPLE MINDS ACOUSTIC. Featuring KT Tunstall.
Recorded in December 2014, includes performances of ‘Honest Town’, ‘Alive & Kicking’, ‘Let The Day Begin’, ‘Don’t You’ and Bowie cover ‘The Man Who Sold The World’.
