Mike And The Mechanics Announce New Album 'Let Me Fly'
Friday, 10 February 2017
Written by Laura Johnson
Mike and the Mechanics have revealed the details of their new album.
'Let Me Fly' is due to arrive on April 7 via BMG. Discussing the follow up to 2011's 'The Road', Mike Rutherford said:
“'The Road' didn’t move anyone’s world as we made it just after we’d met. We’ve learned to play together now. For me, it’s about proving I can write a good song, but the older you get, the less you let yourself off with ’it’s not bad’, the less you pretend and the tougher you are on yourself. The hardest part of the whole process is staying relevant, but anyone who says success doesn’t matter is a liar: what you really want is people to like it. Then you feel it’s all been worth it. It’s as simple as that. Oh and my wife loves it, more than she’s loved an album of mine for a while! Trust me, that’s a really good sign.”
Check out the album's tracklist and artwork below.
