Black Market Babies were born in late 2006, after a series of impromptu jams in Dave S's small bedroom, the result being permanent hearing damage for all four participants. Gaining new-found confidence from being unable to hear the concoctions they spewed forth, Daves S & K, Stephen P and Andrew C set out to conquer the world in a rock and roll band. In early 2007, vital founding member Andrew C was replaced when he decided to uproot himself to China, however his contributions are still remembered fondly by all today. With Tommy B inducted into the collective, the group focused and began steadily writing and rehearsing material. The BMBs as they are affectionately known launched their attack on the aural stratosphere of Perth in early/mid 2007 and continue to fight the good fight to this day.
Highlights in The Babies’ short gig career so far include a 3rd place in the WA State Final of the National Campus Bands Competition in what was their 5th ever show, opening for Karnivool and Bluejuice, and playing with the likes of Sugar Army, Streetlight and Harlequin League.
Ah... you'se need to go gangsta and just play somewhere, even somewhere random, until somebody tries to oppress you then you have to run 'til you're outta breath ^_^ I look forward to something like that happening in front of me in my lifetime
so yeh we're playing on the 16th of march together maybe when we set our clocks back an hour at the end of daylight savings they took it further and set their's a month back daylight savings is a bit confusing its an easy mistake to make awesome
friends....officially. oh myspace. oh myspace. on a much more serious note, for thrashing pig skins, you sure know how to get sweet sounds. i hope my rough songs dont give you that cringing spine tingling sensation, in a bad way. howl
