Blue Orchids
The Once And Future Thing
Having reunited three years ago after being asked to play All Tomorrows Parties by their fans in Deerhunter, Blue
Orchids are back with their first full-band album since - believe it or not - their 1982 Rough Trade "The Greatest Hit
(Money Mountain)". Blue Orchids began in 1980 after three former members of The Fall reunited, including founding
guitarist Martin Bramah and their first keyboard player, Una Baines. A deal with Rough Trade shortly followed, resulting
in two 7" singles, a spot on NMEs C81 cassette compilation of post-punk luminaries and 12" EP, "Agents Of Change."
Despite later line-ups featuring members of Primal Scream, The Smiths, James and other big names, no follow-up albums
were issued in their day. Martin was asked to become lead singer of Inspiral Carpets, passed on that, rejoined The Fall
for their biggest-selling album, "Extricate," and retired from music for a few years. American trip planned for spring
of 2017.
