British rock band
Boxer were a rock band formed by singer and keyboardist Mike Patto and guitarist Ollie Halsall in 1975.[1] They signed to Virgin and three albums followed, Below the Belt (1975), Absolutely (1977) and Bloodletting (1979), which also featured Bobby Tench and Boz Burrell.[2] The band dissolved after Absolutely when Patto became ill.
The band was managed by Nigel Thomas who secured a five-album deal over five years with CBS, reputed to have been worth £1.2million,[3] and was never fully executed due to Patto's death on 4 March 1979.[1] During a six-year period, Boxer also toured the US and Europe.
