Radio Birdman

About

Australian proto-punk/garage rock band based in Sydney, New South Wales. They were formed by Rob Younger (vocals) and Deniz Tek (guitar) in mid-1974. Soon, Pip Hoyle (keyboards), Chris Masuak (guitar), Warwick Gilbert (bass) and Ron Keeley (drums) completed the line-up.


The band released the EP "Burn My Eye" in 1976, and followed it with their debut album "Radios Appear" in 1977. Seymour Stein signed the band, which led to an intrernational release of their debut in 1978, but with a different track listing (as the band had re-recorded half of the tracks). The band left Australia to tour Europe, and recorded their second album "Living Eyes" while in Wales. Internal tensions led to the group's disbandment in June 1978 though, with the second record eventually coming out in 1981.

In 1996 the band reunited. In 2006, they recorded and released a third album called "Zeno Beach", with Jim Dickson (bass) and Russell Hopkinson (drums) in the places of Gilbert and Keeley respectively.
