The Adventure Babies were a Stafford-based Britpop band, founded by Matt Tedstone, Dave Atherton and Jez Bramwell in 1990. The band had three releases on the Factory Records label:
- The Camper Van (EP) (FAC 319, 1991)
- Laugh (album) (FACT 335, 1992)
- "Barking Mad" (single) (FACT 347, 1992) [1]
The Adventure Babies were the last band signed by Factory Records before it went bankrupt. At the time of Factory's bankruptcy in 1992, test pressings had been made of a second single from the Laugh album, the title track. [2]
The band continued playing with new guitarist Vulch (Bryan Wilkin) for a year, seeking a new recording contract.
A second album, Once Upon A Time The End, was issued in 2005, on CD only. In 2018 this was followed by a digital-only album release, Extracts of the Next.
