The Bardots

Formed in Norwich, England in 1989. Simon Dunford (guitar/vocals), Andy Murphy (guitar), Steve Cox (bass), and Neil Cox (drums) had begun playing together in university. They released their debut single (a flexi-disc) "Sofaelaine" in 1990. After their single "Sad Anne" they added a fifth member, Krzysztof Fijalkowski (guitar) and got a deal with Cheree Records. Their debut full-length, "Eye Baby", got some underground support. In 1994, with Murphy no longer with the band (replaced by Yves Altana), their long-awaited follow-up, V-Neck, appeared. The album failed to make an impact, and the group faded away.
