Messengers (Scottish band)


Messengers were a Scottish new wave duo consisting of Danny Mitchell and Colin King. The duo were originally part of Modern Man, a Glasgow punk band discovered by Midge Ure of Ultravox. Modern Man disbanded after releasing one LP produced by Ure, Concrete Scheme (1980), after which Ure stayed with Mitchell and King as Messengers. Messengers toured as support band to Ultravox, contributing to the live album Monument (1982), and with Mitchell co-writing Midge Ure's "If I Was". Enough material for an album was recorded by 1984, but Ure's label Chrysalis declined to release the LP. The album was not finally released till 2004 when King and Mitchell re-recorded the songs for the Ultravox fan site Extreme Voice.
