Tony Hadley is one of Britain’s most enduring vocalists, best known as the powerhouse frontman of Spandau Ballet. With his soaring voice and polished stage presence, he helped define the sound of the 1980s New Romantic movement, delivering global hits like True, Gold, and Through the Barricades. Since leaving the band, Hadley has forged a successful solo career spanning pop, jazz, and swing, earning him both critical acclaim and a loyal international fan base. Now, Tony returns with The Mood I’m In—a bold, elegant celebration of swing and big band classics, infused with his unmistakable vocal style. The album features fresh takes on timeless standards, all delivered with the warmth, confidence, and sophistication that only Hadley can bring. At its heart is Walk of Shame, a brand new original track that perfectly captures the cheeky charm and swagger fans have come to love. Available on CD and two exclusive colour vinyl editions, The Mood I’m In has been half-speed mastered to Direct Metal Mastering (DMM) and pressed on heavyweight 180gsm vinyl for audiophile-grade sound. Housed in a beautifully printed inner sleeve, this release is not just an album—it’s a collector’s piece and a musical statement. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to his music, this is Tony Hadley at his charismatic best.
