Strawberry Switchblade was a Scottish Indie Pop-rock female quartet sporting Goth ic sensibilities. Formed in Glasgow in 1981, they were signed to WEA Records by Bill Drummond . By 1982 the band had been reduced to the duo of Jill Bryson and Rose McDowall , and it was this line-up which had a minor hit in the mid- 1980s with their song "Since Yesterday", noted for its sampling of the earlier hit "Beach Baby" by First Class. The girls' striking black-and-white wardrobe attracted some coverage at the time. The song "Since Yesterday" has revived some new interest in this band when it was covered by Japanese 80's-style Synth Pop artist Tommy February6 . |
