The Communards have made their social media debut. 

The group, starring Jimmy Somerville and Richard Coles, released two albums and scored a run of hits in the late ‘80s, including their chart-topping cover of Don’t Leave Me This Way.

Since 1988, the duo has been inactive, with Somerville continuing his musical career as a solo artist, but according to their latest social media post that could soon change. 

“There’s some exciting announcements in the pipeline,” they penned, alongside a throwback shot of the pair.  

“Sign up to our newsletter and be one of the first to hear.”

The Communards scored nine UK Top 40 hits during their original run, including the Top 10 singles So Cold the Night and Never Can Say Goodbye. 

Somerville went on to release six solo albums, the latest of which, ‘Homage’, arrived in 2014.
