Simple Minds
Simple Minds take to the stage at the Hackney Empire to perform stripped-down and reimagined versions of songs spanning their career. Hosted by Jo Whiley.
On the eve of the release of their 2016 album, Acoustic, Simple Minds took to the stage at the Hackney Empire to perform a stripped-down and reimagined set of their songs spanning their eclectic and illustrious career.
This Radio 2 In Concert hosted by Jo Whiley sees the Glaswegian rockers replace the synths with guitars to perform an acoustic set of songs without losing any of their essence.
