SUBURBAN LAWNS
A playfully subversive new wave pop band with a sharp, arty edge, Suburban Lawns enjoyed an impressive burst of popularity for their catchy yet angular melodies and the sometimes deadpan, sometimes antic vocals of vocalist Su Tissue, who sang of various aspects of contemporary culture ranging from computer dating and UFOs to the Supreme Being. Suburban Lawns was formed in Long Beach, California in 1978 by two students at the California Institute of the Arts: Sue McLane, who took the stage name Su Tissue and handled lead vocals and keyboards, and William Ranson, also known as Vex Billingsgate, who sang and played bass. After the two began working up songs, they brought aboard guitarists Frankie Ennui (born Richard Whitney) and John Gleur (real name John McBurney), and drummer Chuck Roast (aka Charles Rodriguez). Suburban Lawns soon began making a name for themselves on the Southern California club circuit, and in 1979 the band self-released their debut single, "Gidget Goes to Hell" b/w "My Boyfriend." The A-side's satiric title and lyrics earned it plenty of airplay on stations willing to spin independent singles, and filmmaker Jonathan Demme made a low-budget music video for "Gidget Goes to Hell" that gave Suburban Lawns a nationwide audience when it was aired on Saturday Night Live...
