ABC is a true British pop icon. They broke out of Sheffield in 1980 with a sound that mixed playful pop and vibrant new wave energy, carving their name into music history. Fronted by Martin Fry, whose voice and stage personality are instantly recognisable, ABC exploded onto the scene with The Lexicon of Love, a debut that stormed to No. 1 on the UK charts and sold millions of copies. That album delivered classics like The Look of Love, Poison Arrow, and All of My Heart, tracks that still light up dancefloors and playlists today.
If ABC are great in the studio, they are even better live. Martin's flair for performance makes every show a standout moment. Audiences across the UK and beyond have seen Martin belt out those timeless hits with energy that jumps right off the stage. ABC's popularity proves that great pop doesn’t fade with time. Their live shows mix nostalgia with lively, crowd-friendly vibes that get everyone up and moving.
ABC's set list reads like a greatest-hits party playlist. Whether it’s the romantic sweep of The Look of Love or the upbeat grooves of Be Near Me, they get the crowd moving every time. ABC have toured the world, headlined iconic venues, and wowed festival crowds, performing both in classic pop band line-ups and with full orchestras when they revisit The Lexicon of Love in its original grandeur.
Hiring ABC to perform at your event brings instant excitement. Their catalogue cuts across generations, and their songs create a feel-good atmosphere from start to finish. ABC's rich catalogue appeals to a wide range of music lovers, making them a perfect choice for weddings, corporate events or party. With Martin Fry leading the group, you get stage charisma and a night your guests will keep talking about long after the last note fades.
