Formed in the late 1970s by Sheffield-based computer programmers Ian Craig Marsh and Martyn Ware, The Human League evolved into one of the seminal ’80s electro pop bands. Fronted by former hospital porter, Philip Oakey, and featuring Susan Ann Sulley and Joanne Catherall, the band went on to record some of the most influential songs of the decade.
International hits have included, “Don’t You Want Me Baby“, “Love Action”, “Open Your Heart”, “Mirror Man”, “Fascination”, “The Lebanon”, the U.S Number One “Human” and “Tell Me When”.
