The Icicle Works

Named after the 1960 short story "The Day The Icicle Works Closed" by science fiction author Frederik Pohl, The Icicle Works joined Liverpool's early 1980s 'neo-psychedelia' wave, which also propelled Echo & The Bunnymen and The Teardrop Explodes to stardom. Lead singer Ian McNabb went on to pursue a solo career, although a reformed Icicle Works have been performing occasional live dates since 2006.
