The End Records and BMG have teamed up to release Simon Kirke’s upcoming studio album All Because Of You, out February 10, 2017 in North America. Simon Kirke recorded All Because Of You with Empty Pockets over the course of four studio sessions at Chicago, IL’s Empty Pockets Studios. With Simon Kirke on lead vocals, drums, guitar, keyboards, and ukulele, his cohesion with Empty Pockets (Josh Solomon, Erika Brett, Nate Bellon, Danny Rosenthal) would make you think they’ve been recording together for years. Says Simon Kirke, “I finally got a chance to record some of my best songs with a superb band - the Empty Pockets. This CD has become one of the highlights of my career." Fans of Bad Company will be excited to learn that Track 3 on All Because Of You is a ukulele version of the 1975 Bad Company classic “Feel Like Making Love,” written by Simon Kirke (and named the 78th Best Hard Rock Song Of All Time by VH1!). The album also features guitarist Warren Haynes (ex-Allman Brothers, Gov't Mule), who guest stars on Track 10, “Trouble Road.” Simon Kirke - "Feel Like Making Love" [ukulele version] As premiered with Ultimate Classic Rock How this came about... Kirke explains: "I was noodling on my ukulele playing 'Feel Like Making Love' just for fun and my fiancé Maria said, 'you should do that on stage...' I told her it was an iconic song of Bad Company's and she said, 'So? Do your own version... it's fun...' I played it to the Empty Pockets and they loved it... so here it is." Album Tracklist: 01.
