U2 is een Ierse rockband met Bono (Paul David Hewson), zang en gitaar, The Edge (David Howell Evans) op gitaar, piano, bas en soms zang, Adam Clayton op bas en soms gitaar en Larry Mullen jr. op drums. Deze bezetting is van het begin af ongewijzigd gebleven, wat uitzonderlijk is in de popgeschiedenis. Zelfs de entourage van de groep – van manager en geluidstechnicus tot roadie en artdirector – is in de loop der jaren bij U2 grotendeels hetzelfde gebleven. De band is politiek actief voor de mensenrechten en steunt vele goede doelen, onder andere door benefietconcerten en inzamelingsacties. Het benefietconcert Live Aid op 13 juli 1985 vormde de definitieve doorbraak van de groep.
