Simply Red

Soul II Soul, led by Jazzie B, emerged from London in the late '80s blending hip-hop, house, and R&B. Known for hits "Keep On Movin'" and "Back to Life," the group achieved Grammy wins, international acclaim, and U.K. chart success. Featuring rotating vocalists like Caron Wheeler, they released several successful albums and singles throughout the '90s. Despite disbanding by the decade's end, Jazzie B, awarded an OBE, continues to lead reunion performances.

Simply Red, formed by Mick Hucknall in 1985 in Manchester, achieved over 60 million album sales and three Brit Awards, with hits like "Stars" and "Money's Too Tight".
