RIVERHEAD
Was Away / Haddit (7'' Single)
1992 Avalanche Records
Riverhead was indie/madchester band formed in Edinburgh around 1988 by the guitar player and roadie from The Motorcycle Boy and - despite supposed interest from Rough Trade - quickly signed to Avalanche Records. The line-up was Michael Doran (Vocals, Liverpool); Richard Conte (Drums, Atlanta, ex-We Peoples!); David Scott (Guitar, Belfast, ex-Motorcycle Boy); and Rod white (Bass, Auchtermuchty). The band released three records. There were two four track EPs "Alpharetta" and "Haddit" as well a final single, "Was Away" (with Ady Powers replacing Scottie on guitar). Riverhead split in 1992.

thanks for this! very underreted band
It baffles me how little information there is about this band.
Another band from that era that I can never, ever find anything on the internet about is Sinister Groove.
Saw them supporting New FADS once and loved them. Also read an interview with them in the NME and I know they released one EP which I have never managed to track down, although they must have had a copy once for sale on eil as it's listed here >> http://eil.com/shop/moreinfo.asp?catalogid=503570
Anyone else remember them? or better still have a copy of that EP they'd like to share?
As over...thank you!
