U2
Dublin stadium band
U2 is an Irish rock band formed in Dublin in 1976, featuring Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr.
The group rose to global prominence in the 1980s with anthemic songs like "With or Without You" and "Where the Streets Have No Name." Known for arena-filling stadium rock and Bono's activism, U2 became one of the best-selling bands in history.
The name may reference the American spy plane, the U-2, or the phrase "you too."
