U2 " I still haven´t found what I´m looking for"

U2 are an Irish rock band from Dublin, formed in 1976. The group consists of Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Muller, Jr (drums and percussion).

U2 early sound was rooted in post-punk but eventually grew to incorporate influences from many genres of popular music.
They have maintained a recognisable sound built on melodic instrumentals, highlighted by The Edge´s guitar playing and Bono´s expressive vocals. Their lyrics, focus on personal themes and sociopolitical concerns.

U2 have released 12 studio albums and are among the best-selling groups in popular music, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide. They have won 22 Grammy Awards, more than any other band. In 2005, U2 were included into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility. Rolling Stones ranked U2 in its list of the "100 greatest Artists of All Time."

Throughout their career, as a band and as individuals, they have campaigned for human rights and philantropic causes, including Amnesty International, the ONE/DATA campaigns, Product Red, and The Edge´s Music Rising.
