UB40 to Release New Album “UB45” on April 19th, 2024 | WATCH NEW VIDEO! Announces New Tour for 2024
UB40 IS BACK WITH A NEW ALBUM, “UB45” AND A 21-CITY US TOUR CELEBRATING THEIR 45-YEAR LEGACY
“UB45” is a 14-song celebration of the past, present, and future of the band. The collection includes new recordings alongside several classic UB40 songs reimagined to celebrate the anniversary of the formation of the group way back in 1978.
The first single from the new album, “Gimme Some Kinda Sign” breathes new life into the 60’s classic originally recorded by Brenton Woods. Combining the band’s insouciant grooves, a breezy melody and trademark effervescence, “Gimme Some Kind a Sign” is a bona fide triumph. Lead vocalist Matt Doyle suggested it to Robin Campbell, unaware that it had been sitting on his wish list since the Labour of Love (1983) album days four decades ago.
“Gimme Some Kinda Sign” is the first single from the band’s upcoming album “UB45”. The album releases globally on Friday April 19th, via the SRG-ILS label imprint. “UB45” is available for pre-orders now; https://fanlink.to/ub45.
