Normil Hawaiians

Originally formed in the chaos that ensued following Punk's burn-out, Normil Hawaiians were an ever-changing collective based around guitarist / vocalist Guy Smith. A self-produced demo resulted in a session for John Peel and a 7" single deal. The Peel session was broadcast 3 times over a period of 6 months (Thurs 19/06/80, Mon 07/07/80, and Thurs 02/10/80, according to my Peel Sessions book), whilst the single ('The Beat Goes On') reached #44 in the independent chart in Nov 1980.
