Prefab Sprout is an English pop band hailing from Witton Gilbert, County Durham. They achieved great success in the 1980s with seven of their albums reaching the UK Top 30.
Formed in [year], Prefab Sprout quickly gained popularity for their unique sound and catchy melodies. Led by singer-songwriter Paddy McAloon, the band's music seamlessly blends elements of pop, rock, and new wave.
With their infectious hooks and intelligent lyrics, Prefab Sprout became a staple of the British music scene. Their albums consistently garnered critical acclaim and commercial success, solidifying their status as one of the most influential bands of their time.

As suggested by the title, From Langley Park to Memphis is Prefab Sprout's spiritual journey into the heart of American culture; obsessed with rock 'n' roll (The King of Rock 'n' Roll) and Bruce Springsteen (Cars and Girls), fascinated with gospel music (Venus of the Soup Kitchen) and locked in a love/hate relationship with New York City (Hey! Manhattan), Paddy McAloon turns an iconoclastic eye to the other side of the Atlantic in order to make some sense of it all. An airy, lounge-pop feel permeates the record, which also sports cameos from the likes of Stevie Wonder and Pete Townshend.
