Haircut 100
Haircut 100 was a pop rock-influenced band, formed in 1980 by Nick Heyward, whose most successful single was "Love Plus One."The group broke up in 1984 then briefly reunited in 2004.
The Band was originally formed in 1980 by Nick Heyward (guitar, vocals), Les Nemes (bass), Tim Jenkins (guitar) and Rob Stroud (drums). Jenkins left quite early on when the band were un-signed later to be followed by Stroud who joined the punk band The Sex Gang children, (a favourite of John Peel). Graham Jones from Sydenham left punk/mod band The Low Numbers to join the then named Moving England. Stroud was replaced by Patrick Hunt on drums who played on their first single Favourite Shirts. The band were unhappy with the quality of Hunts playing and he was fired and replaced by Blair Cunningham who's solid and funky drumming would prove invaluable as a backbone to their live shows. Cunningham replaced the drum track on the Album version of Favourite Shirts although the single has the original drums played by Hunt. During the early gigs, Phil Smith and Mark Fox were draughted in on saxophone and percussion. Originally meant to be session musicians, they were asked to join the line up of the band when they signed to Arista records.
