Breakaway
 

Breakaway deserves recognition, both as a standout in Kim Appleby’s back catalogue, and as an album which showcased her growth as a singer/songwriter and her ability to blend warm, soul-pop melodies with lyrics that convey sincerity and emotional depth. Yet, despite its many merits, the album has remained largely absent online – until now!

​

From Friday the 6th of February, this untapped classic will finally be officially available to stream through all major streaming platforms, as part of a staggered, 4-week streaming release schedule: set to also include the singles Breakaway and Light of the World (with their respective ‘Remixes’ packages), and the previously promo-only release, Breakaway The Extended Mixes album (available to stream from February 13th and then February 20th).

​

Rounding off this exciting package, Kim’s stunning 1994 single Free Spirit, and its ‘Remixes’ package, will be available to stream from February 27th.

​

Together, these streaming releases, which have all been newly remastered from their original tapes, make early 2026 an ideal time to rediscover Kim’s musical legacy as a solo artist, and to guarantee that the Breakaway album finally receives the long overdue applause that it truly warrants!
