Corduroy -

Formed from the ashed of short-lived Brit-pop groups Boys Wonder, Corduroy played tehir first gig - one-off New Year's Eve date - in 1991; the performance proved so successful that its members agreed to continue on full-time, soon signing to the Acid Jazz label and issuing their debut LP, the largely instrumental Dad Man Cat, in 1992. Acid Jazz dropped Corduroy from its roster; after a long hiatus, the group finally landed on the Big Cat label, where they resurfaced in 1997 with The New You.
