Other Voices Records announces the expanded version of Indians in Moscow's 1984 self titled masterpiece that will be available for the very first time on CD.
Indians In Moscow were formed in 1981 by keyboard players Pete Riches and Stuart Walton (formerly of The Most), and singer Adele Nozedar, The band later expanded to five members with the addition of a guitarist and a drummer (Rich Hornby). The band's first release was a contribution the various artists compilation Your Secret's Safe With Us in 1982.
They came to fame on the cult 1980s Channel 4 music TV show The Tube as part of the show's Hull music special, and had three hits on the UK Indie Chart with "Naughty Miranda", "I Wish I Had", and "Jack Pelter & His Sex Change Chicken". After a fourth single, the Big Wheel EP, the band's only (self-titled) album was released in 1984. The band split up shortly afterwards, with Nozedar forming a new band, The Fever Tree (along with drummer Tom Hosie, who had replaced Hornby, Ali McMordie of Stiff Little Fingers, guitarist Rob Dean of Japan and guitarist Nik Corfield) who released one single, "The Pixie Shop", late in 1985.
