Biography

The Boo Radleys were a British alternative rock band of the 1990s who were associated with the shoegazing and Britpop movements. They were formed in Wallasey, Merseyside, England in 1988, with singer/guitarist Sice, guitarist/songwriter Martin Carr, bassist Timothy Brown and drummer Steve Hewitt. Their name is taken from the character of Boo Radley in Harper Lee's 1960 novel, To Kill A Mockingbird. Shortly after the release of their first album, Hewitt was replaced by Rob Cieka. The band split in 1999.
