THE LIGHTNING SEEDS myamigouk/thelightningseeds.htm Visit the page above for more videos from The Lightning Seeds, read their full biography, visit their Artist Store, or find out if they have any concert tours planned. The Lightning Seeds are an English alternative rock band from Liverpool, England formed in 1989 by Ian Broudie (vocals, guitar, producer), formerly of the band Big in Japan. Originally a studio-based solo project for Broudie, the Lightning Seeds expanded into a touring band following Jollification (1994). The group experienced commercial success throughout the 1990s and are well known for their single Three Lions, a collaboration with David Baddiel and Frank Skinner which reached number one in the UK in 1996 and 1998. In 1989, Ian Broudie began recording alone under the name Lightning Seeds. Broudie had previously been a member of the band Care in the mid-1980s, but by 1989 was much better known as a producer for Liverpool-based chart acts Echo & the Bunnymen and The Icicle Works. Working as a singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/producer, Broudie (in his guise as The Lightning Seeds) achieved success with the psychedelic hit Pure from the album Cloudcuckooland, which reached the UK Top 20. The same year Joy and All I Want were also released but failed to make an impression. Pure had some success in the United States Billboard Top 40 reaching number 32. Both Pure and All I Want also reached the Modern Rock Tracks Top 10.
