THE WOULD BE'S Silly Songs For Cynical People 1991


 

Discogs

 


Indie pop band from Ireland formed in 1988 by the three Finnegan brothers, evolving from their earlier band The Nobody's. Another brother James Finnegan managed the band, and footed the bill for the recording and for the first pressing of 250 copies of their debut single, released by Danceline Records. This single was famously championed by John Peel (it reached number 12 in that year's Festive 50).
17 year old singer Julie McDonnell left the band shortly afterwards, replaced by Eileen Gogan before breaking up in 1991.
The band reformed in 2000 with a new singer, Karen Cunningham.

The Dragons Biography by Erik Hage

So Cal punk & rollers the Dragons were fronted by Mario Escovedo, the youngest sibling of musicians Alejandro and Javier Escovedo. Javier, of L.A. punk legends the Zeros ( and later with Alejandro in the True Believers), bought his teenage kid brother his first guitar on Sunset Strip, paving the way for Mario's rock 'n' roll future.
Mario and Ken Mochikoshi Horne had formerly been in a punk band called M-80's. Toward the end of 1990, the two decided to form a new band, recruiting bassist Steve Rodriquez and drummer James Barczak. In the summer of 1992, the Dragons released a 12-track vinyl LP in Spain on Impossible Records. The following year the group parted ways with Barczak, adding Jarrod Lucas. In 1994, they recorded a four-song 7" for Pop Tones Records, following that in 1996 with their first CD release, Painkiller, on Scam-O-Rama Records. By the end of 1997, the group had signed with Junk Records, for whom they recorded several LPs, including 1999's raw, furious R.L.F. (Rock Like F*ck) and the 2000 concert set Live at the Casbah. Rock N Roll Kamikaze followed in 2001, and was supported by an even more furious touring schedule that took the band from L.A. and the southwest all the way to Japan. By August 2002, The Dragons were back in the U.S.A., and playing the 1st annual Gearfest in Austin, TX. Gearhead Records, the show's sponsor, was blown away by the band, and signed them soon after. Sin Salvation, their fiery, redemptive Gearhead debut, appeared in May 2003, and was supported by a tour with labelmates the Riverboat Gamblers.

L.E.S. STITCHES Snapped 1996

L.E.S. Stitches Biography by Greg Prato

From the Lower East Side of Manhattan came the punk rock quintet L.E.S. Stitches -- Mick Brown (vocals/guitar), Curtis Stitch (lead guitar), Todd Radict (rhythm guitar), Damian Branica (bass), and James Baggs (drums). The band's story begins in the late '80s, when friends Stitch and Radict joined forces in the band the Radicts. When the group folded in the early '90s, the duo decided to stick together, and formed L.E.S. Stitches with a few other punk enthusiasts. Soon they began gigging around NYC, playing CBGB's and other hangouts, and acquired many new fans opening for the Dickies, D-Generation, and Murphy's Law. Legendary Ramones frontman Joey Ramone took the band under his wing after being blown away by their live act, and featured the band at one of his showcases for unsigned talent. Due to all the publicity, L.E.S. Stitches soon signed to Ng Records, releasing their full-length debut, Snapped, in 1996.
