Ultravox is a New Wave rock band that were one of the primary exponents of the British electronic pop music movement of the late 1970s/early 1980s.
The band was led by two different frontmen - from 1974 until 1979, John Foxx was frontman and main driving force behind Ultravox. Following Foxx's departure, Midge Ure took over as lead singer, guitarist, and frontman.
A new line-up, led by original bandmember keyboard player/violinist Billy Currie, was formed in 1992. The band's best-known line-up of Currie, bassist Chris Cross, drummer Warren Cann and Ure reformed in 2008 and have toured together since. |
