Haircut 100
Haircut 100 was a pop-
New Wave band formed in
1980 (
1980 in music) by Nick Heyward, Les Nemes and Graham Jones with Phil Smith, Mark Fox and Memphis Blair Cunningham. They were successful from the beginning, with
1981's (
1981 in music) "Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)", setting the stage for the breakthrough success of
Pelican West in
1982 (
1982 in music). "Love Plus One" was even bigger than anything previous, and Haircut 100 seemed poised for stardom just as Heyward decided to seek a solo career. The remainder of the band tried to continue with
Paint and Paint in
1984, but they broke up soon after (see
1984 in music).
