Biography

Formed in 1976 in Dublin, Ireland, U2 quickly rose to fame with their distinctive blend of moody textures and anthemic rock songs. Led by frontman Bono, the band's early albums, including 1983's War and 1987's The Joshua Tree, solidified their status as one of the biggest rock acts in the world. Throughout the years, U2 continued to evolve, experimenting with electronic and dance influences on albums like Achtung Baby (1991) and No Line on the Horizon (2009). Their socially conscious lyrics and dynamic live performances have earned them a dedicated global following.

U2's discography spans decades, with hits like "With or Without You" and "Beautiful Day" showcasing their enduring popularity. The band's innovative tours, such as the Zoo TV and 360 tours, set new standards for live performances. In recent years, U2 have explored their musical legacy with projects like Songs of Innocence (2014) and Songs of Experience (2017), as well as intimate re-recordings on Songs of Surrender (2023). Their continued relevance and boundary-pushing creativity have solidified U2's place as one of the most influential and enduring rock bands of all time.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
