Australian pop-rock bands Boom Crash Opera and Models have announced a five-state Australian tour.
Boom Crash Opera formed in 1984 and was initially based around the songwriting partnership of Richard Pleasance and Peter Farnan and later joined by Dale Ryder, Peter ‘Maz’ Maslen and Greg O’Connor.
Their highest charting albums are Boom Crash Opera, These Here Are Crazy Times! and Fabulous Beast with Top 20 singles: "Great Wall", "Hands up in the Air" (both 1986), "Onion Skin" (1989) and "Gimme" (1994).
In the United States "Onion Skin" reached No. 8 on the Billboard component chart Modern Rock Tracks. Australian musicologist Ian McFarlane noted that the group had a "strong visual image and the uncanny ability of its principal songwriters to pen catchy, commercial songs ensured a string of successful releases".
Models formed in Melbourne in 1978 and re-formed in 2000, 2006 and 2008 to perform reunion concerts. The band began regularly performing again from 2010 onwards. "Out of Mind, Out of Sight", their No. 1 hit, appeared on the Australian singles charts in July 1985. The related album, Out of Mind, Out of Sight, peaked at No. 3 on the Australian charts and appeared on the Billboard 200 albums chart, with the single, "Out of Mind, Out of Sight", peaking at No. 37 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.
The earlier song from the same album, "Barbados", peaked at No. 2 on the Australian singles chart.
