It’s an old cliche’ that bands first start out jamming in a garage.
But for western suburbs duo, LunarFringo, the garage wasn’t where they started, but reunited.
Sam Gadd and Richard Tregear grew up on the same street in Williamstown and began making music together in the late 1970’s, before drifting apart.
And that’s the way things remained for decades until Tregear found a box of old recordings in his daughter’s car.
After listening to his old band for the first time in years, the vocalist was pleasantly surprised.
“These are alright,” Treager said to himself.
Soon after he was in guitarist Gadd’s garage turned studio in Altona and LunarFringo was reborn.
Now the two 70 somethings are about to release LunarFringo Because, an album of songs they first wrote together in their 20’s.
A listening party for the album will be held at Kindred Bandroom this Thursday before its official release on 12 December.
