1981 Housekeeping
The Theater Band
Diamonds
Genre: Generic Glam Power Pop Rock
3.25 out of 5
Highlights:
It Doesn’t Have to Be Love
Requisite 80s Cover: “Happy Together”. They just added a bit of crunchy guitars. A neat little cover of “I Think We’re Alone Now” that’s a little speedy. I prefer Tiffany’s version.
Not much info exists about this one-shot glam rock band but I did find this page because the singer, Donnie Bennett is a Florida fixture of sorts. I think he works for a church and as an audio engineer.
This music sounds like what you’d get from an audio engineer who loves rock but doesn’t have the songwriting chops to make it on to the industry hamster wheel.
The article is about a different band, Deloris Telescope, but they had a relationship with Theatre.
