The Escape Club

The Escape Club

The Escape Club war eine englische Rockband aus London, die von 1983 bis 1992 bestand.

Die Band wurde gegründet von Sänger Trevor Steel und Gitarrist John Holliday von den Mad Shadows, verstärkt von Milan Zekavica, dem Schlagzeuger der Espressos und dem Bassisten Johnnie Christo.

Nach der Veröffentlichung einer ersten Single machten sie sich vor allem als Liveband einen Namen, was zu einem Vertrag mit EMI und 1987 zu ihrem Debütalbum White Fields führte. Ihr nächstes Album Wild Wild West in tanzbarerem Stil wurde von EMI abgelehnt, so kamen sie 1988 bei Atlantic Records unter. Die gleichnamige Single erreichte den ersten Platz der amerikanischen Charts und das Album erreichte Goldstatus. Im Jahr 1991 folgte das rockigere Album Dollars & Sex. Danach brach die Band auseinander.
