Who is bananarama

I was so angry and hurt. Hand out a wanking glove with every single? How fucking dare you? We were young girls at the time, being talked about like that. All three women agree that with hindsight, they were pretty good role models, actually.

They had done it their way. And for nine years, the public agreed. Bananarama still hold the record for the most singles to chart by a girl group ever. Venus brought them their first US No 1. They were riding high on Love in the First Degree. They were thinking about a world tour. Then Fahey walked out.

Woodward was in a different place entirely. Performing pop songs and letting go, just embracing it all. It took them 10 years to talk to each other again. There were sore feelings on both sides. I felt really isolated within the band for a year before I left.

And they felt betrayed that I left. So we stayed together longer than most marriages these days. Keren and Sarah made a new album in and are releasing a memoir about their time in Bananarama, while Siobhan revived Shakespears Sister with Marcella, performing throughout Bananarama perform Venus on Tonight at the Palladium.

More info. Bananarama are a three-piece girl band who came together in while studying fashion in London. While two of the members, Keren Woodward and Sara Dallin, were childhood friends, they met Irish musician and their third part Siobhan Fahey as students. What caused the band to have one of the messiest break-ups in pop history, and who was behind it? They saw themselves as punks who were not prepared to be manipulated by any man. After a chance meeting with Paul Cook ex Sex Pistols at the club Studio 21 their problem was solved, he offered the pair a room above the Sex Pistols old rehearsal space in the legendary Denmark St.

Charing Cross. The 17th century townhouse is now a Grade II listed building. The teenagers used to come in after clubbing and plug the guitars in and party. Dallin and Woodward had their first taste of the music business recording demos with bands in the studios of Denmark St previously used by the Rolling Stones, Bowie, Small Faces, Elton John. A whole new world was opening up!
