In the News

Mick Joins The Faces

May, 30 2010

The news that British rock band, The Faces are planning to reunite for a festival date in 2010 and a world tour in 2011, has resulted in mixed emotions given that they are to take to the stage without their famous singer, Rod Stewart. Officially taking over vocal duties will be Mick Hucknall, the flame-haired singer best known for warbling the 80s ballad “Holding Back the Years” as frontman of Simply Red. He will take the stage alongside original members Ronnie Wood, Kenney Jones and Ian McLagan with former Sex Pistol Glen Matlock replacing Ronnie Lane, who died in 1997 of MS. Mick cut his teeth with the veteran band when The Faces played a one-off gig at the Royal Albert Hall in October 2009, and his guest performance during belting classic “Stay With Me” went a considerable way to addressing criticism that the soul crooner couldn’t rock. Ronnie Wood even felt that Hucknall had a certain parity with the much loved Stewart and said, "What we loved about Mick Hucknall was his voice range was just like Rod's in the Seventies... He just had the electricity in his voice like no time had gone by.”
