ABOUT UB40 LEGENDS ALI, ASTRO, & MICKEY
The band formed in 1979 in the Birmingham suburb of Moseley, pooled a diverse set of influences to put a fresh, indigenous slant on Jamaican reggae.
UB40 went on to dominate charts around the world. In 1983, a cover of Neil Diamond’s “Red Red Wine” topped the charts on both sides of the Atlantic. The band secured two further chart-topping singles at home in “(I Can’t Help) Falling In Love With You” (also another US number one) and “I Got You Babe,” a duet between Ali and the band’s old friend Chrissie Hynde, and Ali and Robin Campbell also scored a No.1 with “Baby Come Back.”
The original line-up of UB40 with Ali, Astro and Mickey enjoyed huge success over a period of 30 years; including No. 1 albums and multiple top 10 gold and platinum selling albums and Grammy nominations, 4 number ones worldwide. Total of 70 million plus sales.
When Ali Campbell departed in 2008 after 29 years and a dozen major world tours with the band, he was followed out of UB40 by Mickey Virtue. Campbell, with Mickey lending a helping hand, has since released two solo albums. Astro remained with the band until November 2013, when he left to team up again with Ali and Mickey. Now, following some spectacular gigs at home and abroad, the trio are facing the future with renewed confidence and vigor.
