Releases by westwon

Westwon were a dance / rock fusion band formed in 1987 and reasonably well known for supporting Gary Numan on the 1987 Exhibition Tour. Marc Heal took over as vocalist following the departure of original frontman Bill Colbourne after the recording of a full length self-titled CD that was released by Canadian label Brouhaha in 1988. The line up in early 1990 was Marc Heal (22) on vocals, Si Rapley (25) guitar, Graham Rayner (22) keyboards, and Mick Caddick (25) on drums. In June 1990 Westwon signed to UK metal label Music for Nations on the FAA imprint, releasing two singles: "National Radio" (1991) and "Control" (1992). The dance remixes of "Control" were actually fair sized club hits and scraped into the lower reaches of the national chart. By the time of the single releases, the band became a two-piece with only Heal and Rapley remaining. A second full length album was recorded but never released. Westwon disbanded in 1992 and Heal went on to form Cubanate with Graham Rayner. Read more on Last.fm.
