Biografia:
The Members fueron una banda de punk-reggae inglesa formada en 1977. Liderada por el cantante Nicky Tesco, fueron de los primeros en mezclar con éxito música reggae con actitudes punk. Su primer single, "Solitary Confinement", fue un éxito que les llevo a firmar con Virgin Records. El siguiente single, "Sound of the Suburbs", fue un éxito del Top 20 británico. Luego grabaron su primer álbum, "Live at the Chelsea Nightclub", que también subió a las listas, y le siguió "The Choice Is Yours".
