There is no record of this band. No Wikipedia entry. Nothing on Allmusic. Just the Discogs entry to prove this solidly 80s pop paisley thing exists.
Do you like 10,000 Maniacs? Well, Hearts on Fire was there first. The lead singer, Syn D’Cody isn’t as powerful as Natalie Merchant but she comes close, as do the U2 meets REM songs. (“Shall We Be Dancing” is a great example of this).
I loved this and wonder how and why they never got their push out into the mainstream. The label was probably garbage.
Too bad.
This was excellent. And ahead of the curve.
