Formed in 76 in Dublin Ireland by current drummer Larry Mullen Jr., and the band was originally called “Feedback”. Starting as a Beatles and a Rolling Stones tribute band it was comprised of Mullen, his friend Paul Hewson (aka Bono), Dave Evans (aka The Edge), and Dave’s older brother Dik Evans. Dik left the band approximately a year and a half after its inception when it was called “The Hype”. This pared the group down to the four members that we know it as today. Shortly after this, the name again changed, this time, to U2. Winning a talent show in 78, they had made enough to record a long awaited for demo tape. By the latter part of that year, they had hired manager Paul McGuiness.

Releasing an EP “Three” during the fall of 79, they had a hit in Ireland. In 80 they were topping the Irish charts with a new hit, “Another Day”. This won them a contract with renowned Island Records. It would be some time before they would find success outside of Ireland, but for now, they were sensations in Ireland. Thus began the process of their first to come studio album. Boy and subsequent single “I Will Follow.” Per their fan site, this song has been a staple of every concert they have ever given. 30 years after the first release, it’s still a staple. During the early and the mid 80s, they gained a larger following within the U.K. By October of 81 they had released “Fire” as well as “Gloria”. Soon, the band was topping charts in all of the countries. This led them to three new singles, “New Year’s Day”, followed by “Two Hearts Beat As 1”. And lastly, “Sunday Bloody Sunday” were all hitting the charts at or near the top.

Finally breaking into mainstream abroad in 87, they released “Joshua Tree”. This album alone would sell over 25 million copies and be certified a diamond album in the U.S. This would be a six times platinum album in their home in the UK. With another hit in 81 “Achtung Baby” they would sell another 8 million copies in the United States alone. IN the 90s, they were forced to recreate themselves in order to meet the ever-changing needs of the music industry and their listeners. They added in new sounds that would add to different genres like dance as well as industrial. They created new ways to entertain their millions of fans and added in some multimedia as well as other visual effects for their Zoo tour on TV.

Returning to their roots thanks to “All That You Can’t Leave Behind”, they also included their smash hit of Beautiful Day. In 2004, they released the famous “How To of Dismantle An Atomic Bomb”. This would also include the top of the charts “Vertigo” and their iPod commercials for famous Apple Products. By February of 2009, this too would be certified platinum in a variety of countries. By 2014, they released Songs of Innocence and of course, they have performed and recorded with famous names such as B. B. King, as well as Green Day, Johnny Cash and Paul McCartney.
