FOAM

BIOGRAPHY:

Act formed by ex-Dark musicians Ross Ballainy (guitar), Andy Hume (bass / vocals), Gav MacVicar (drums) & Stuart Woodland (guitar), along with Kevin Byrne (vocals) in 1994. Byrne had first met the band at Jinty McGinty's, Falkirk in 1994, and had harrassed the band until they let him sing. Byrne also played drums with Sister during this time. The band supported The Supernaturals at an all day festival at the Martell in December, and then continued playing live into 1997, building up a following through supports with The Trashcan Sinatras, The Complete Stone Roses and Whiteout. Creation Records showed some interest in them, but this came to nothing, and they split that year. Foam gave out tubs of creamola foam at live dates. Byrne went on to play drums for Nicotine Junkies, whilst Hume & Woodland formed Rococco. MacVicar joined Dazed.
