ABC Tickets ABC is an English New Wave band that charted eleven Top 40 singles between 1981 and 1990. ABC was formed in 1980 in Sheffield, England after Martin Fry, a music journalist, interviewed the band Vice Versa. They adopted Fry as lead vocalist and changed their name to ABC. The revamped band were labelled as part of the New Romantic movement of the time, which included the likes of Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet and The Human League. ABC's first single, "Tears Are Not Enough", made the UK Top 20 in 1981. The band had three Top 10 hits during 1982: the singles "Poison Arrow", "The Look of Love (Part One)" and "All Of My Heart".

In addition to their music, ABC were also known for shooting high-concept music videos that perfectly captured a suave Great Gatsby meets James Bond asthetic. ABC still tours, with Fry the only original member, often in conjunction with other 1980s nostalgia or revival acts. In 2004, the VH1 show "Bands Reunited" attempted to get the line-up of Martin Fry, David Palmer, Stephen Singleton and Mark White together for a reunion concert. Martin Fry and David Palmer appeared and played together for the first time in over twenty years. Singleton and White opted not to participate.

Having completed a tour of the US in May and June 2006, Fry and Palmer are putting the finishing touches on a new ABC album with a working title of Traffic, scheduled for release in 2007. Gary Langan, who worked on The Lexicon of Love and Beauty Stab, is producing the album.
