Torch Song was a British synthpop and dance band of the early 1980s consisting of William Orbit, Laurie Mayer and Grant Gilbert. In 1985, Gilbert left to pursue other projects and was officially replaced by Rico Conning, a long-time friend. After the release of Exhibit A in 1987, Orbit concentrated on solo work and remixes. He continued to write with both Mayer and Conning and in 1995 they reformed Torch Song to record and release Toward the Unknown Region.
