Steve Averill (born 1950) is an Irish graphic artist, art director, writer, musician, and former punk rock vocalist. He, along with his company, AMP Visual (previously Four5One Creative), has designed all the album covers for the Irish band U2. Averill also brainstormed the name "U2" that the group selected for themselves.
It was Averill who suggested U2 as the name of the Irish group then known as "The Hype".[4] Adam Clayton would replace their former name
Later, Averill soon started his own company, Four5One Creative, now AMP Visuals,[4] and one of the first jobs was to design a cover for U2's debut album Boy. Since then his firm has been behind most of U2's visual media. During his design career, he worked for several of Ireland's musical acts, such as, The Dubliners, Hothouse Flowers, Aslan and Clannad; and international acts like Elvis Costello and Depeche Mode.[4]
Published to coincide with the February 2003 opening of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's U2 exhibition In The Name Of Love, a book Stealing Hearts At A Travelling Show shows U2 collaboration in the design work by Averill and Shaughn McGrath from 1980 to 2003
