Episode Details

Simple Minds: the Scottish rock giants who went from post-punk outsiders to stadium-filling anthem makers. With Don’t You (Forget About Me), they became forever tied to the ‘80s, but their catalog runs way deeper—sweeping synths, soaring choruses, and a knack for reinvention that’s kept them going for decades. Whether they’re embracing their new wave roots or pushing into fresh territory, Jim Kerr and company are still proving they’re more than just a John Hughes soundtrack staple. Join us for this retrospective as Jim Kerry talks with Kyle Meredith about the legacy, the music, and the future for Simple Minds.
