Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Jim Kerr and Charlie Burchill formed Simple Minds in 1977 and have been the band's only original members and core songwriters throughout its 46-year history. One of the biggest, most influential, eclectic and pioneering groups of the past half century, Simple Minds emerged from Glasgow's post-punk scene, transitioning from restless art-rockers to electro futurists and passionate pop contenders before becoming, finally, a global rock behemoth. Their critically acclaimed run of records between 1979 and 1985 are cited as a key influences by artists as diverse as Primal Scream, Mogwai, Manic Street Preachers, Moby, Peter Gabriel, Horrors and Chvrches. Their numerous global hits include 'Alive And Kicking', 'Promised You A Miracle', 'Waterfront', '(Don't You) Forget About Me', 'Belfast Child', 'Sanctify Yourself', 'She's A River' and 'Let There Be Love'.
