The band soldiered on with long-time roadie, John Hansen, taking over on rhythm guitar until they called it quits in 1991.
In 1988 after a short European Tour, founding member Kim Kane departed to focus on his band Date Bait.
In 1983, a music video for their song “When I Go to the Beach” placed second in MTV ‘s Basement Tapes competition.
In 1978, Mark Noone replaced Hull as the singer, with the band reimagining itself through both Noone’s showmanship and songwriting.
Separated Vegetables , the group’s full-length debut, followed in 1977, but Kane disliked the album’s sound to such a degree that he limited the initial pressing to 100 copies.
The band released its first EP, Hot and Cool , that same year.
The band was founded in 1976 by guitarists Kim Kane and Marshall Keith, with Kane as principal songwriter, and featured Martha Hull on vocals.
