The story started in 1970 in Birmingham, England, where the Electric Light Orchestra began their journey as one of the world's most popular rock bands. Their music was characterized by a  fusion of Beatlesque pop, classical arrangements, and futuristic iconography. ​An astonishing library of hit records that sold more than 50 million copies includes Eldorado, Face the Music, A New World Record, Out of the Blue, Discovery and Xanadu. ​

The band began touring as THE ORCHESTRA in 2000 emerging as a supergroup made up of former members of ELO and ELO Part II and other celebrated rock acts. Over the years the members of THE ORCHESTRA have played ELO's greatest hits to millions of fans in over 50 countries.
