Popular band flocks to Cincinnati

A band that rocked the 1980s is coming to Cincinnati to get things moving all over again.

Flock of Seagulls first got together in Liverpool in 1979, with brothers Michael “Mike” Score and Alister “Ali” James Score, along with Francis Lee “Frank” Maudsley forming the backbone of the group. When Paul Reynolds joined the group as lead guitarist, the classic lineup was in place.

Reynolds' unique guitar styling made Flock of Seagulls one of the 1980s' most influential groups. They helped define what today is electronic music, pop, and dance music. The group had a number of hit singles such as “The More You Live, the More You Love,” as well as a music video, “I Ran (So Far Away)” that was played repeatedly on MTV as part of the “Second British Invasion.” In 1983, Flock of Seagulls won the Grammy for “D.N.A.,” an instrumental.

In 2018, the original band members got back together and recorded a new album, “Ascension,” with the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.

A review of a Seagulls concert says:

“I took my wife to this concert on our recent 5 day trip to California. She was a big fan of F.o.S. back in the 80's. They did not disappoint. Great show. Great Energy. Will definitely go again if given the chance.”


Flock of Seagulls will appear October 17, at 8:30 pm., at Cincinnati's Ludlow Garage. When events such as this are scheduled, poster printing is often used to create advertising.
