Out of Nowhere







Beside the legendary Apartments, Peter Milton Walsh headed up this
Laughing Clowns inspired band that released this one vinyl single.
Out of Nowhere began in Brisbane in march 1981
and played a number of significant well received dates
prior to moving to Sydney in October 81.
While in Brisbane they released their 1st single on cassette
"The Arrangements" in conjunction with Pink and Blue.
On arrival in Sydney, they played a few dates,
added a bass player and lost a drummer.
Subsequently Jeffery Wegener guests on this recording on
Ed Kueppers , Prince Melon Lable.
I'm not sure what happened after that, according to the short bio
I just quoted from above, they were to find a new drummer
and embark on their first tour of eastern Australia in late April 82.
By 1984 Peter was playing with the laughing clowns
and recorded on the next Lp I'm blogging.
If anyone can fill in the history please do in the comments.

What a gem. Being a fan of The Apartments I'd heard of Peter Milton-Walsh's brief stint in 'Out Of Nowehere' but until now had never tracked down a copy. Thank you so much for posting this.

This is the best blog ever. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Bob
I've always wondered what this single sounds like, as I've always loved the Clowns. Another great post for the blog with the most.
