[edit] Band history
The Rum Babas hailed from Sydney's southern suburbs, and they were formed in 1987. Their sound was a blend of pulsating guitar rock with a flashy percussion beat. They gigged at many of Sydney's live venues and supported The Divinyls and also Concrete Blonde. The Rum Babas changed their name briefly to Jezebelle, before reverting back to their original moniker. They appeared on the Timberyard Records compilation album 'Rockin Bethlehem - The Second Coming' in 1990, recording the song 'Hearts On The Table'. In 1991 they released a 10" vinyl EP titled '3 Good Reasons' which was produced by Kevin Shirley and was nominated for an ARIA award for best independent release.
