Documented collaborators

Ex Simple Minds is a Glasgow-born project rooted in rock, new wave, and post-punk. Formed in 2009 by Derek Forbes and Brian McGee — both former members of Simple Minds and Propaganda — the band has crafted a distinctive sound that nods to its illustrious heritage while carving out its own path. Over the years, the lineup has evolved, bringing in artists such as Owen Paul, George Porter, and Eddie Beggan. While the group’s official discography centers on singles rather than full albums, their releases have resonated with fans of post-punk-infused rock. As of 2025, there are no publicly announced Ex Simple Minds tour dates, with the most recent live activity documented in 2023 and prior performances in 2011 and 2011 Manila appearances. We’ve got you covered for reliable information, and we’ll help you secure seats for future shows as soon as dates are announced.
