Pele were an English indie rock band, formed in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire, England in 1990, by the guitarist and frontman Ian Prowse and keyboard player Andrew Roberts.
Despite never reaching the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart, the band built up a loyal live following, but split in 1995 due to a legal wrangle with their record label.
Tours with Del Amitri and The Pogues followed, before the band used the Rockfield Studios in Wales to record the follow-up album with producer Jon Kelly.
"Don't Worship Me" was Pele's sixth single - (a hit in the Netherlands and Germany) and was followed in early December by the Sport of Kings album.
Prowse formed Amsterdam, who released their debut album in 2005 and reached the UK Singles Chart Top 40 in the same year with their song "The Journey".
