| Influences | When we conceived the band in the early 80s, we were mostly inspired by our love for psychedelic pop records of the 60's (particulary The Beatles' song Rain and the Stones' Satanic Majesties Request LP) as well as the the Paisley Underground scene that was happening at the time (The Rain Parade, The Three O'clock) but as the years wore on we allowed ourselves to explore Leonard Cohen's territory a bit more and more.
The obvious influences: The Beatles, The Byrds, Leonard Cohen, Donovan, Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, Kinks, Rain Parade, Three O'Clock, Velvet Underground, Yardbirds, Neil Young, Zombies.
The less obvious (or at least less-apparent) influences: David Bowie, Kate Bush, Nick Cave, Brian Eno, Jimi Hendrix, Rolling Stones, Serge Gainsbourg, Souixie and the Banshees, Violent Femmes among many others.
