Tony Hadley MBE is known as the lead vocalist and co-founder of Spandau Ballet who were previously known as The Cut in 1976. Martin Kemp (Bass guitarist and vocals), brother Gary Kemp (Songwriter, guitarist, synthesiser and backing vocals), Steve Norman (Saxophonist and hand drums) and John Keeble (Drums) made up the band lineup.
The band released their debut single “To Cut A Long Story Short “ on October 31st 1980 to rave reviews and went on to top the UK charts with their album True released in 1983. The band’s single also entitled “True” (1983) topped the charts in the UK Official Singles Chart. The band is also known for popular singles “Gold” (1983), “Only When You Leave” (1984), “I’ll Fly For You” (1984) and “Through The Barricades” (1986) to name a few.
The band went on a 19-year hiatus in 1990 and saw the singer release his solo album The State of Play in 1992. The band reunited for The Reformation Tour in 2009 and the singer announced his departure from the band in 2017 to embark on his solo career once again.
