The Sugababes sprung a seismic surprise on fans with the release of ‘The Lost Tapes.’
Mutya Buena, Keisha Buchanan, and Siobhan Donaghy, who comprise the original lineup of the hugely successful Brit-Pop band, reunited over a decade ago.
Then taking on the name MKS (an abbreviation of their names) due to legalities around the group name, the ladies pressed forward with the release of the critically-acclaimed single ‘Flatline.’
Yet, following its 2013 release, news on a housing album went quiet. Instead, a proliferation of leaks spilled online.
Expanding on the situation with today’s previously unnannounced release, the Sugababes (who have won back the rights to their name) said:
“We wrote this album almost 8 years ago and for various reasons it didn’t get an official release, so it’s with great pride that The Lost Tapes is available now on all streaming platforms 🎁
A very Merry Christmas, love Mutya, Keisha & Siobhan ❤️”
Featuring production from the likes of Devante Hynes (of Blood Orange), MNEK, and Biffco, the collection is a timeless and immaculate set that proves that there is an undeniable magic that activates when Mutya, Keisha, and Siobhan join forces.
The arrival of ‘The Lost Tapes’ comes as the ‘Babes gear up for ‘One Night Only’ – their biggest headline show to date at the O2 Arena.
Take a listen below…
Thank God they finally did it, I told them so many times to release it and I’m glad they did, even if I already know these songs. I hope they will release a volume 2 with the other ones like Only You and Light Up, we need it all girls.
Boys should have been a single and it was supposed to be the second one I think. Same for Drum and Back In The Days. This is a great second album and the songs are old now but they still sound fresh. Fans are going to be happy for sure, that was needed, it would have been a shame to not officialy release these bops.
Flawless album 10/10
FLO could never!
Do you like this Album?
YESSSS! I can finally listen to “Flatline” + “BOYS” without being on my laptop haha.
THEY DID A GOOD JOB
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSS!!!!!
Finally! This is a flawless album. Deserved an official release. Even though its 8 years. Hope they do music videos for some of the songs.
