Background

In late 1990 following Rob Snarski's return from London, he established a new line-up of the band, comprising Kenny Davis Jr. (The Jackson Code - keyboards), Phil Kakulas (Martha’s Vineyard - bass), Kathryn Wemyss (The Jackson Code - vocals, trumpet), Tim Rollinson (Directions in Groove - guitar), James Elliott (The Cruel Sea - drums) and James Cruickshank (The Cruel Sea - organ). This line-up recorded Anchor Me in early 1991, with the song "Glory Glory" being included on the Triple J Live at the Wireless compilation album. The songs were subsequently included on the band's 16-track debut album Welcome Stranger , released in August 1992.
