Exactly-New album from Right Said Fred

Right Said Fred release their 9th studio album Exactly in March 2017.

The album, two years in the making features an array of special guests and Fred and Richard Fairbrass’ signature mix of tongue-in-cheek observational pop.

Half of the album was recorded with Paul Statham (Simple Minds, Kylie, Dido) and the other half with Gordon Davis and Jason Glover (who was part of the James Taylor Quartet).

The album’s opener Me And You is an upbeat pop anthem featuring Jodie Scantlebury who has previously worked with Bryan Ferry.

The album’s themes range from simple and fun observations like single Sweet Treats inspired by a British Airways dessert, to the more serious Save Me, which touches upon depression whilst Raining In England is a melancholic song about everything in the world around us is changing but the one thing that can be relied upon – the rain in England.

The album arrives after the Fairbrass brothers spent 2016 celebrating the 25th Anniversary of their 1991 hit I’m Too Sexy. In the 25 years since I’m Too Sexy’s release, the brothers have reached fans all across the globe, selling in excess of 7 million copies of their debut album Up worldwide, receiving two Ivor Novello’s for I’m Too Sexy and Deeply Dippy as well as a Brit Award nomination for Best British Act.

The brothers have also played The Royal Variety Performance, met the Queen, released a track for Comic Relief (Stick It Out) and, most importantly, Richard was voted Rear of the Year by Smash Hits Magazine.

Right Said Fred continue to appear at special events and TV shows all over the world. They performed in front of 200,000 people at the 2006 World Cup opening ceremony and 300 million people for the Bollywood Awards plus guest appearances on Good Morning America, Big Brother’s Bit On The Side, The Wright Stuff, Lorraine, Ant and Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway, Pointless and John Oliver’s Last Week Tonight.

After 25 years, the brothers say they remain true to their spirit – they don’t follow trends, they follow their instincts and have fun along the way.
