Brideshead’s basic structure of 80’s influenced guitar pop was originated in 1993 under the moniker of Starfish. Debuting with the EP This is Mall Music two years later on Apricot Records, the band was in the midst of a revolving roster that would haunt them until 1997. Eventually settling with Martin Nelte (vocals), Zwen Keller (guitar), Hanns-Christian Mahler (guitar), Paul Engling (bass) and Daniel Kubsch (drums), the Frankfurt natives finally had the chance to record their first full-length on Marsh-Marigold entitled Some People Have All The Fun. Released in 1998, Brideshead toured the US in support of it the following year. |
