Thompson Twins

Thompson Twins were an English pop band formed in 1977 in Sheffield. They began as a new wave group and later adopted a more mainstream pop style, achieving significant popularity during the early and mid-1980s with several hits in the United Kingdom, the United States, and internationally. In 1993, the group changed its name to Babble to reflect a shift from pop to dub-influenced chill-out music and continued under that name until 1996, when they disbanded.
