About The Darling Buds
The Darling Buds
The Darling Buds are an indie band from Newport, Wales. The band were formed in 1986 and took their name from a British novel called The Darling Buds of May.
Influenced by the catchy simpler sound of the early Beatles, the band created very melodic hook driven short duration singles. They were considered part of the short lived "Blonde" movement(bands that were fronted by blondes with the band members dressed in black) along with the like of The Primitives but also referenced the C86 scene of a few years earlier.
A number of notable hits in their native UK and managed to release three full length albums as listed below:
Pop Said - Epic 1988
Crawdaddy - Epic 1990
Erotica - Epic 1992
They are releasing their 4th album in July 26. Same Sun/Same Sky is being released on Cherry Red Records. There are plans to tour this album in late summer this year
