They’ve inspired multiple generations of artists, created some of pop’s most enduring classics, and achieved #1 singles and albums around the globe.

It didn’t take long for them to make waves in what would be a crowded decade for British new wave; their 1982 debut Pelican West peaked at No.2 on the UK Albums Chart and with playful and dynamic tunes including ‘Favourite Shirt (Boy Meets Girl)’, ‘Fantastic Day’ and ‘Love Plus One’, remains on the 80s most memorable records.
