Audio By Carbonatix

Simple Minds is getting ready to release a new album. The band is set to drop their 18^th studio album “Direction of the Heart” on October 21^st. 

“How to make a feel-good ‘Electro-rock’ record, during the very worst of times? 'Direction Of The Heart' is the result of that challenge,” frontman Jim Kerr shares. “Who would have thought we’d have so much fun creating it?” 

The band also released the first single from the record, “Vision Thing,” which Kerr says is a tribute to “best pal,” his father who passed away in 2019.
