- The Quireboys are an English hard rock band formed in 1984 in London, England, with strong ties to Newcastle. When the band formed they were originally known as the London Quireboys in the United States. The band were successful during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with their debut album "A Bit of What You Fancy" reaching #2 on the UK charts. Their highest charting single for the band was with the song "Hey You", it reached #14. In 1993, the Quireboys broke up but briefly reformed live in 1995 with different members. A more permanent reformation came in 2001 when front man Spike, guitarist Guy Griffin and bassist Nigel Mogg put together a new line-up. The band is still active, recording new material and playing live.
- The Quireboys on englantilainen hard rock -yhtye, joka on perustettu Lontoossa vuonna 1984. Yhtyeen perustamishetkellä nimi oli The Choirboys ja yhtye on tunnettu koko uransa ajan Yhdysvalloissa nimellä London Quireboys. Yhtye nautti suurinta suosiota 1980-luvun lopulla ja 1990-luvun alussa. Heidän debyyttialbuminsa A Bit of What You Fancy sijoittuikin Ison-Britannian albumilistalla sijalle 2. Levyn suurin hitti Hey You sijoittui singlelistan sijalle 14. Vuonna 1993 laulaja Spike hajotti yhtyeen, sillä hän ajatteli heidän edustamansa musiikkityylin menneen pois muodista ja kuolleen kokonaan. The Quireboys perustettiin uudelleen vuonna 1995 muutamaa esiintymistä varten, mutta varsinainen paluu tapahtui vuonna 2001, kun laulaja Spike, kitaristi Guy Griffin ja basisti Nigel Mogg perustivat uuden kokoonpanon. Yhtye on nykyäänkin toiminnassa tuottaen uutta materiaalia ja esiintyen. Yhtye on erityisen tunnettu laulaja Spiken raspiäänestä, jota on verrattu mm. Rod Stewartiin. Yhtye on myös erityisen vahva live-esiintyjä. Tunnetuimpia kappaleita ovat "Hey You", "7 O'Clock", "You Don't Love Me Anymore", C'mon" sekä "King of New York".
