Details
Simple Minds are a Scottish rock band formed in Glasgow in 1977 by Alan Cairnduff as Johnny & The Self–Abusers, with long–standing band members Jim Kerr (lead vocals) and Charlie Burchill (lead guitarist) joining shortly afterwards. By January 1978, they began performing as Simple Minds and released their debut album Life in a Day in 1979 to moderate commercial success. Subsequent album releases – Real to Real Cacophony (1979) and Empires and Dance (1980) achieved limited commercial success, and after signing to Virgin Records, they released their fourth album Sons and Fascination/Sister Feelings Call (1981) which became their most successful studio album to that point. Kerr and Burchill are the two members who have been with the band throughout its whole history, and the only current permanent members and songwriters. As of 2023, the other current members of the live and studio band are bassist Ged Grimes, drummer Cherisse Osei, backing singer Sarah Brown, guitarist and keyboardist Gordy Goudie and keyboardist Erik Ljunggren. Notable former members include keyboardist Mick MacNeil, bassists Derek Forbes and John Giblin and drummers Brian McGee and Mel Gaynor.
