Bio:
I know almost nothing about this band. Formed in Dublin in the early 80s,
they recorded two singles, a good poppy new wave first, followed by a
more mersh second. Both are worth hearing and both are getting harder to
track down. Dave Murphy joined the band on synthesizer for a short period
circa 1985. He plays on an unreleased recording titled "Maņana" which
you can find on youtube (see External Links below).
Was this the same Sammy Nevin who played in Taxi and Iron Horse ?
