Time is the thirteenth studio album by British pop group Simply Red, released on 26 May 2023 through Warner Music. It was produced by Andy Wright, preceded by the singles "Better with You", "Shades 22" and "Just Like You" and followed by the single "It Wouldn't Be Me", which included a new "Single Mix" of the song. The band performed at the O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire on 5 June 2023 to celebrate the album's launch, as well as continuing their tour of Europe in mid-2023.




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." 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".
