Tigers - Red Dress
1980


This is Wellington Power Pop band Tigers' first single. They contain three future members of Country band The Warratahs, bassist Nick Theobald, guitarist Barry Saunders, and drummer Mike Knapp. After this single was released another future Warratah and ex-Fourmula member Wayne Mason joined them on keyboards.  But the Tigers sounded nothing like The Warratahs they were a Pop band. After touring extensively around New Zealand and releasing three singles the band moved to Australia.  They released a further two singles and an album in Australia before breaking up.
