<?xml encoding="UTF-8">Level 42 makes technical playing feel light on its feet. Formed in 1979, the British band built its identity around Mark King&rsquo;s thumb-slap bass and rhythm sections that could carry jazz-funk elements into sharper pop songs without losing any of the movement underneath.1,2Over time, that approach carried the group from specialist grooves into mainstream success, with Something About You, Lessons in Love, and Running in the Family helping define its best-known years.1,2 Their self-titled debut helped establish the band early in Britain's jazz-funk scene.3Grab your <a href="https://www.axs.com/uk/artists/111028/level-42-tickets" target="_self">Level 42 tickets</a> on AXS and hear a band whose grooves still land with real snap.

<?xml encoding="UTF-8">Level 42 came together in 1979, when Mark King, Phil Gould, Boon Gould, and Mike Lindup formed the band with roots stretching from the Isle of Wight to London.1,2 In its early form, the group leaned toward an instrumental jazz-funk sound, while King was still moving from drums to the bass style that would become central to the band's identity.1,2Before releasing their first single, Love Meeting Love, the band added vocals to give the music a more commercial direction, with King stepping forward as lead singer. That single introduced Level 42 in 1980, and Love Games soon followed with the band's first British Top 40 entry.1Their self-titled debut album was released in 1981, reached the Top 20 on the UK charts, and gave Level 42 an early chart presence they quickly built on.1

<?xml encoding="UTF-8">Level 42&rsquo;s key records show how naturally the band could shift between groove-heavy and direct pop writing.<ul>
