They were signed by legendary label Stiff Records, then Virgin, they toured America and Australia where they also had success. They played gigs with The Police and The Clash, and like both those bands incorporated reggae into their sound.
After a 24 year hiatus, The Members reformed in 2007. JC Carroll has been the ever present driving force behind the band since they got back together. They are still gigging and have released new material and a Greatest Hits album.
