About Art Of Fighting
Emphasizing pop with relaxed melodies and a complex structure is the trademark sound of Melbourne's Art of Fighting. Debuting in 1995 with the collaboration of Ollie Browne (guitar/vocals), Peggy Frew (bass/vocals), and Cameron Grant (drums), the band would spend the next three years gigging throughout Southeastern Australia as a three-piece. After contributing to the Au-Go-Go Records compilation Wonder from a Quarter Acre, Half-A-Cow Records debuted their first mini-album, The Very Strange Year, in 1998. Guitarist/ trumpeter Miles Browne soon joined the Art of Fighting after the release of their second mini-album, Empty Nights, in 1999. ~ Mike DaRonco
