" In a Nutshell....

Brett Adams and Dianne Swann started writing together and formed The Julie Dolphin in London in 1992.

Within six months they had a record deal, had written, recorded and produced an E.P. and an album, received critical acclaim and a growing audience when they toured and played live with the likes of Oasis, Green Day, Catatonia, etc, etc found themselves on College radio in the States, Radio One in London and single of the week in NME.

TJD were hand picked by members of Radiohead to tour with them twice throughout the UK

Dianne and Brett's songwriting talents were recognised and they signed a publishing deal with Chrysalis Music (UK). A demo of their song 'Super Model Human' found its way onto the XFM A list and before long they were signed by Jerry Moss and Herb Albert, to their label 'ALMO Sounds'. They recorded an album as 'Boom Boom Mancini' and the excitement continued- videos were shot and tours were booked to support the coming album- until the sad day Jerry Moss decided that a million years in the music industry was long enough and closed his record company. Dianne and Brett felt as though enough was enough and so disbanded BBM.

Dianne and Brett returned to New Zealand in 2002 and have recently finished recording Earth From Space, an album of songs they have written together and separately as The Bads. "

"Sam Prebble is a multi-instrumentalising, alternative-historicising, sometimes even mesmerising writer and performer of songs. Even if the songs are in the first person sometimes, they're not about him, because that wouldn't be very interesting, would it? That would be like some guy at a party who wants you to know about his day. The Bond Street Bridge Band is whoever Sam's working with. Sometimes it's people, sometimes it's an antique tape echo machine, sometimes it's historical figures from the town of Ruby. Sometimes it's a gremlin-infested computer with funny ideas. The town of Ruby is situated on the west coast of the South Island of the Dominion of New Zealand. It's a place with a higher than average incidence of murder and mayhem, which tends to make it attractive from a songwriting perspective. "

Should all make for a very good show indeed!
