He first gained prominence in the late 1970s as a member of the band Slik and subsequently joined The Rich Kids, a group formed by former Sex Pistols bassist Glen Matlock. Ure's career took a significant turn when he became the frontman of Ultravox in 1979, leading the band to commercial success with hits like "Vienna" and "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes."
