The Rebel Pebbles
The Rebel Pebbles were formed in the late eighties, influenced by such bands as the Go-Go's and the Ramones. They played local clubs in L.A., shot some music videos and were gaining popularity in the L.A. music scene. The band was quickly signed to I.R.S. Records and EMI in Europe.
With catchy hooky tunes and their brand of happy, high energy pop songs, they became instant label darlings, touring with the likes of Dread Zeppelin, Stan Ridgeway, Squeeze, The Special Beat and No doubt, they captivated audiences across the U.S., Canada and Europe.
They were discovered by band manager Chris Lamson (The Bangles, Stan Ridgeway) playing at a dive bar in Hollywood, called The Natural Fudge factory. A couple of weeks later Miles Copeland and Jay Boberg, respective record label owner and president came to a show at the now defunct Natural Fudge factory and they were signed instantly.
Rachel Murray has gone on to form Rachel in the Weeds, Rachel Right and the Wrongs and is currently writing songs and performing. Karen Blankfeld started her own studio, Boomchic Studios where she composes music for television and films and lives in Los Angeles with her family. Robin (Fox) Barnette is an aromatherapist, vitamin consultant, a published children's books author, and a yoga therapist in the Los Angeles area. Cheryl Bullock is playing drums and percussion in local salsa bands in the Long Beach area.
The band’s IRS album “Girls Talk” and self produced EP “Party Time” are both now available, for the first time in 20 years, for download on iTunes, Amazon, and over 350 online music retailers.
