Blah Blah Blah formed in Sydney Australia in late 1984 and played regularly around the pumping Sydney and Wollongong Pub Circuit, until they disbanded in 1991. During this period they released a number of self funded recordings, the debut single, Changing Times, released on vinyl in 1985. Subsequent releases include the cult classics “The Bob Hawke Walk” and “Nuclear Warships “, which received airplay on the local radio station 2JJ (Double J). The music is powerful, often political, yet strangely quirky, indie rock. The majority of the lyrics were penned by Brett Power, guitar & vocal, and in many ways were conceptually well ahead of their time. In 1987 the ABC music program “Beatbox” made The Blahs “Band of the Week”. This gave rise to the recording of “Suburban Suburb Syndrome” and the creation of a film-clip. The ABC production crew of “Beatbox” went on to produce Andrew Denton’s first show. Their decision to call this new show “Blah Blah Blah”, and the coincidence of Iggy Pop’s album of the day being called Blah Blah Blah had a significant impact on the growth of the band brand.
