Description
In 2025, Simply Red celebrated four decades of classic hits and timeless music with a 40th anniversary world tour, performing to more than a million fans worldwide. Now, the band documents the most unforgettable tour of their career with the release of the multi-format Holding Back the Years: 40 Years of Simply Red, Live in Santiago.
This live concert recording captures the best of five sold-out shows at the Movistar Arena in Santiago, attended by 75,000 people. The performance lives up to the occasion, with Mick Hucknalls voice as soulful, powerful and full of emotion as ever, while the bands stellar musicianship brings every nuance of the original recordings to life.
The setlist is a hit-packed crowd-pleaser, featuring Stars, Holding Back the Years, If You Dont Know Me By Now, ‘Something Got Me Started’, Fairground and many more. The Santiago crowd lives up to its reputation, taking the atmosphere to fever pitch throughout, bringing electrifying energy to the up-tempo numbers as well as almost hymnal singing to the ballads.
