Whatever Happened To… Bronski Beat?

Smalltown Boy – Bronski Beat (1984)
This British trio found their greatest commercial success with this, their debut single and album. When front-man Jimmy Somerville left the group in 1985 to form The Communards, John Foster was brought in as his replacement. Foster left in 1987 and was replaced in turn by Jonathan Hellyer, who worked with the group to record their final studio album before they disbanded in 1995. Steve Bronski went on to produce for other artists. And Larry Steinbachek went to become a musical director in the theater world.
