Biografía

Spandau Ballet were a popular British band in the 1980s. Members were Tony Hadley on vocals, brothers Gary Kemp and Martin Kemp on guitar and bass, with Gary also supplying background vocals, Steve Norman on saxophone and John Keeble on the drums. Gary Kemp also wrote most of the group's music and lyrics. Initially inspired by a mixture of synth-pop and funk as typified by the track "Chant No. 1" which reached No 2 in the national charts and was notable for inclusion of the horn section from the group Beggar & Co, which proved a fruitful collaboration on record. 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 True peaked in the Top 5 of the Singles charts. The song gained a new life in the 1990's and beyond by being sampled in the songs "Set Adrift on Memory Bliss" by PM Dawn and N Dey Say by Nelly. Lead singer Tony Hadley later appeared on the track Out Of The Blue from the album The Time Machine. Albums: 1. Journeys to Glory (Chrysalis Records, 1981) 2. Diamond (Chrysalis Records, 1982) 3. True (Chrysalis Record
