Andy McLean (guitar)
Wendy Lands (vocals)
After the demise of The Tenants, founding members Andy McLean and Gary Brown were offered a development publishing deal by Current Records' Gerry Young. Brown decided to retire from the creative side of the music industry and instead opened a recording studio called Certain Circles.
McLean met a friend who introduced him to Montreal actress/vocalist Wendy Lands who had relocated to Toronto after various musical and television projects failed to boost her profile.
The duo began writing some songs which they demoed for Gerry Young who shopped a deal through Polygram Records' Vertigo label. In 1986 they released their self-titled debut and had some radio play with the single "Date With The Past", but critics were merciless with Lands' vocal approach and the duo parted ways.
McLean would get a job behind the scenes as an executive at the now defunct Intrepid Records. Lands disappeared from the spotlight for 10 years and made a comeback with a well received and radio friendly solo album in 1997.
