After taking some time out to refocus his energy, Kevin Rowland came back to music with a fresh perspective and new-found positivity. A personal, if not strictly autobiographical, record portraying a man whose views have evolved over time. Not just on women, but the whole concept of masculinity he had been raised with: an education and an un-learning that is traced across the arc of The Feminine Divine with dizzying effect.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The record\u2019s first half is full of music hall-esque swagger, much of it written with original Dexys\u2019 trombonist Big Jim Paterson (a non-touring band member). The second side of the record is like nothing Dexys have done before. A saucy, synth-heavy cabaret, written in collaboration with Sean Read and Mike Timothy. It\u2019s steamy, fizzing and sultry, at times doom-laden and heavy and at other times raunchy and funky. Quite a heady mix.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With over a billion worldwide streams, three top 10 albums in the UK, two number 1 singles, a Brit Award and a multi-platinum selling album with their sophomore release &#8216;Too-Rye-Ay&#8217; (as Dexys Midnight Runners), Dexys are as vital and exciting today as ever. &#8216;The Feminine Divine&#8217; marks a new chapter in a book that just keeps getting better and better.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the announcement of their highly-anticipated new album, &#8216;The Feminine Divine&#8217; earlier this week, Dexys have announced a September 2023 UK and Ireland tour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":81077,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"Following the announcement of their highly-anticipated new album, 'The Feminine Divine' earlier this week, Dexys have announced a September 2023 UK and Ireland tour.","jetpack_seo_html_title":"Dexys Announce 2023 UK & Ireland Tour Including A Date At London's Palladium On September 20th","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[394,30787,30799,144,77,30789,30800,103,3343],"class_list":["post-81106","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music","tag-concerts","tag-dexys","tag-dexys-midnight-runners-2","tag-new-album","tag-new-release","tag-the-feminine-divine","tag-too-rye-ay","tag-tour","tag-uk-and-ireland-tour"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5yMhl-l6a","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":81076,"url":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2023\/04\/after-11-years-dexys-give-fans-a-treat-with-new-album-the-feminine-divine-and-new-single-im-going-to-get-free\/","url_meta":{"origin":81106,"position":0},"title":"After 11 Years, Dexys Give Fans A Treat With New Album, &#8216;The Feminine Divine&#8217;, And New Single, \u2018I\u2019m Going To Get Free\u2019","author":"Essentially Pop","date":"03\/04\/2023","format":false,"excerpt":"Dexys are back! 11 years since the release of their last album of original music, the acclaimed, 'One Day I'm Going to Soar', the band return with a stunning new record, 'The Feminine Divine', out July 28th on 100% Records.\u00a0","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Album Reviews&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Album Reviews","link":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/category\/music\/reviews\/album-reviews\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"Dexys - Photo Credit: Sandra Vijandi","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dexys.jpg?fit=1200%2C802&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dexys.jpg?fit=1200%2C802&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dexys.jpg?fit=1200%2C802&ssl=1&resize=525%2C300 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dexys.jpg?fit=1200%2C802&ssl=1&resize=700%2C400 2x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dexys.jpg?fit=1200%2C802&ssl=1&resize=1050%2C600 3x"},"classes":[]},{"id":54005,"url":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2019\/09\/bombay-bicycle-club-announces-new-album-and-uk-ireland-tour\/","url_meta":{"origin":81106,"position":1},"title":"Bombay Bicycle Club Announces New Album And UK\/Ireland Tour!","author":"Emma Mages","date":"09\/09\/2019","format":false,"excerpt":"Bombay Bicycle Club have recently announced that their brand-new album, 'Everything Else Has Gone Wrong', will be released on the 17th January 2020.
