      From Wikipedia, it looks like it was their guitar player: Devo - Wikipedia[^] Or you saw 'Il Divo's singer died in 2021: Il Divo Singer Carlos Marín Dies at 53[^]. It is something that would have confused me.

        That must have been it, thank you (the guitarist. I’ve never heard of I’ll Divo. I think.)

          Me neither. They appear to be one of those 'pretty boy' vocal groups that was (is?) popular on Public Television during their fund drives, next to the 'pretty girl' groups, and Irish clod stompers: IL DIVO - Amazing Grace[^]

            David, you like some weird music, at times, but this group is interesting to me. Enjoyed the listen. Thanx

                        Some bands are like Trigger (from Only Fools and Horses, for non-UK readers). Trigger, who was a street-sweeper by trade, proudly boasted that he'd had the same broom for many years. Of course he'd replaced the brush many times, and also the broom-handle several times, but overall it had lasted well! There are quite a few bands soldiering on with (it appears) only the name left from the original lineup!
