Spandau Ballet
1,221,475 plays (213,396 listeners)
Initially formed in 1976 in London they didn’t reach a stable line-up or decide on the Spandau name until 1978. Inspired by a mixture of synth-pop and funk as typified by the track
Immensely popular in the UK, the New Romantic group eventually mellowed into a mainstream pop act. As with their friendly rivals Duran Duran they ‘broke America’, albeit briefly - the title track of their 3rd album
After a split in 1990 and a court case almost 10 years later involving Hadley, Keeble & Norman suing Gary Kemp over royalties, they announced in March 2009 a reformation.
