Hue and Cry - Everybody Album Review: New Music, Influences, and Collector's Box Set (2026)

Content rewrite request acknowledged. I will provide a fully rewritten English version that preserves all original information and meaning, while enhancing clarity and flow, and adding brief context where helpful.

Hue And Cry unveil their new studio album, Everybody, slated for release in May, with the pulsing electro single “Stronger” already available.

Everybody marks Pat and Greg Kane’s first collection of new material since 2017’s Pocketful Of Stones. The duo draw on their formative influences for inspiration, with Pat aiming for an electronic sound inspired by Bowie's Low as well as Simple Minds, Japan, and The Human League, according to Greg.

After two years of experimenting with both vintage and modern technology, they enlisted Yoad Nevo to assist with the mixing, drawing on his work with acts like Pet Shop Boys and Duran Duran. Pat adds, “We’re still pushing for something new in 2026. From a wall of arpeggiators and synths, humming and pulsing away, we’ve distilled ten songs that carry as much of our mind, body, and soul as any of our previous music.”

The 10-track record will be issued on CD and orange vinyl, and a limited-edition collector’s box will also be available. The box set includes: the Everybody CD (signed), a 140g purple-and-grey marble vinyl LP (signed), a Blu-ray with Dolby Atmos mixes of Everybody, a 7” single featuring two exclusive tracks from the Everybody sessions, a Live At Kelvingrove 15-track live CD recorded in Glasgow in 2025, plus a slip mat, button badge, sticker, and a certificate.

The ultimate collector’s box can be ordered through Hue And Cry’s official shop.

Pat and Greg will tour the album in October, with Pat noting that performing live with the full Hue And Cry band is always the most exciting experience, delivering all their hits in a widescreen, immersive format. He invites fans to attend in style and join in a celebratory, stylish party.

Everybody is scheduled for release on 29 May 2026 under Blairhill Records.

Hue and Cry shop highlights include pre-orders for the collector’s signed box set, signed orange vinyl LP, and signed CD, with direct links available in their store page. Track listings are provided for the CD edition, the vinyl LP, and the box-set contents, including a live Kelvingrove performance and the Blu-ray disc, as well as a selection of exclusive tracks for the 7” single.

Notes: Hue and Cry’s coverage and product pages are presented via SuperDeluxeEdition, which also participates in affiliate programs.

If you’re curious about the album’s direction, you can expect a contemporary blend that nods to the pioneers of synth-pop while preserving the band’s distinctive identity. The release strategy mirrors a trend toward deluxe physical formats that appeal to collectors and long-time fans, alongside standard CD and vinyl options.
