The Pasadenas

The Pasadenas were a British R&B/pop group that found success in the late 1980s and early 1990s with their slick harmonies and retro soul vibe. Formed in the UK, the band was influenced by classic soul and funk sounds, drawing comparisons to Motown greats. Their debut album, To Whom It May Concern (1988), delivered hits like "Tribute (Right On)" and showcased their smooth blend of contemporary pop with old-school soul sensibilities.

The group’s follow-up albums, including Yours Sincerely and the compilation Definitive Collection, maintained their soulful sound, though they didn’t replicate the commercial impact of their debut. The Pasadenas stood out for bringing a nostalgic feel to the late '80s music scene, paying homage to their influences while carving out a space of their own in British pop and R&B.
