Londonbeat

Londonbeat is a British-American dance band that achieved mainstream success in the early 1990s. The group was formed in London in the late 1980s by American expatriates Jimmy Helms and Jimmy Chambers, who teamed up with U.K. natives George Chandler and William Henshall, collectively bringing a variety of musical influences to the table, including R&B, dance, and pop. Their international breakthrough came with the release of their second album, "In the Blood" in 1990, which featured the hit single "I’ve Been Thinking About You." This track not only reached number one in various countries, including the Netherlands, Sweden, and Germany but also secured the number two spot on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Over the years, Londonbeat’s line-up saw changes, but the group maintained its reputation for creating infectious dance tracks laced with catchy melodies and soulful harmonies. Despite their early peak in popularity, Londonbeat continued to produce music and delight fans with remixes and new releases well into the 21st century. Their catalogue of later works includes titles such as "You Bring on the Sun (Charming Horses Remix)," "The Air," and "Back in the Hi-Life," showcasing the band's adaptability to contemporary sounds while staying true to their core rhythm and feel-good essence. The band celebrated their longevity with "30 Years," commemorating three decades of music and memories with their audience. Even after years in the industry, Londonbeat’s enduring blend of soulful vocals and energetic beats continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
