Good evening,
My daughter has to write an essay on New Wave, due Friday. This is to include something on three influential New Wave groups/artists.
At the moment she's thinking Talking Heads, Blondie and Elvis Costello. I'm a bit confused as just about any pop group from that era seems to be considered New Wave. I hadn't really considered Elvis Costello New Wave.
She also mentioned Depeche Mode but I would've thought Vince Clark himself maybe but more so Joy Division/New Order.
So who would you say were three of the most influential New Wave acts and why?
Thank you :0)
