A whole generation has grown up listening to Ali's infectious vocals on classics like One in Ten, Red Red Wine, Don't Break My Heart and I Can't Help Falling In Love.

In October 2007, Ali released a solo album, Running Free, featuring many guest artists including, amongst others, Smokey Robinson, Mick Hucknall and Sly and Robbie the album was a success and went top 10 in the UK charts and attained gold status.

In January 2008, Ali announced his departure from UB40, after 28 years with the band, due to management and business disputes. Following Ali's departure, Mickey Virtue, the keyboard player from UB40, also resigned for the same reasons and is part of Ali's new band.

Ali continues to thrill audiences world wide, performing the classic hits, he is so well known for, like Red Red Wine and Kingston Town, together with some new songs from his latest solo albums.

Whether as part of UB40 in the past, or currently today, in his solo career, Ali has always stayed true to his love of reggae and its ongoing capacity for innovation, the music that first inspired him and continues to do so, to this day.
