Blueboy (band)
Blueboy were an indie pop band formed in Reading, Berkshire who were signed to Sarah Records and later Shinkansen Recordings. Core members Keith Girdler and Paul Stewart also recorded as Arabesque and Beaumont.
==History==
Blueboy formed around 1989 and initially consisted of Keith Girdler (on vocals) and Paul Stewart (on guitars), formerly of little-known band Feverfew.〔Ankeny, Jason "(Blueboy Biography )", allmusic.com, Macrovision Corporation〕〔Strong, Martin C. (2003) ''The Great Indie Discography'', Canongate, ISBN 1-84195-335-0, p. 633-4〕 They soon signed to Sarah Records, releasing the home-recorded single "Clearer" in 1991, and took on more members, including singer/cellist Gemma Townley and second guitarist Harvey Williams (of The Field Mice/Another Sunny Day).〔 "Clearer" was followed by several singles and two albums on Sarah, ''If Wishes Were Horses'' and ''Unisex''.〔 In October 1994, Blueboy recorded a session for John Peel's BBC Radio 1 show.〔(Details of Blueboy's Peel session from the BBC's ''Keeping It Peel'' site )〕 Their final release, ''The Bank of England'', was released in 1998 on Sarah head Matt Haynes' new label, Shinkansen Recordings.〔 By then, Girdler and Stewart were the only original members of the band. Girdler and Stewart were also involved in two other bands, Arabesque and Beaumont,〔 and Girdler also recorded with Lovejoy.〔 Townley later joined Trembling Blue Stars, as did Williams.
Keith Girdler was diagnosed with cancer in 2004, and he died on May 15, 2007. Prior to his death, he was working as volunteer manager for Age Concern, in Eastbourne.
In 2008, Siesta Records issued a compilation album called ''Country Music (Songs for Keith Girdler)''. The compilation was put together by Richard Preece (of Lovejoy) to raise money for the Martletts Hospice in Hove who cared for Girdler.
