Deckchairs Overboard

Deckchairs Overboard were an Australian pop band based in Sydney which formed in 1982 and disbanded in 1985. They released two minor hit singles: "That's The Way" (1983) and "Fight For Love" (1985), as well as a charting LP. The early line-up, which recorded their 1982 debut EP, consisted of Ken Campbell on vocals, guitar, and drums; John Clifforth on vocals, guitar, and keyboards; Paul Hester (later of Split Enz and Crowded House) on drums; and Cathy McQuade on bass guitar and vocals. Most of the group's initial members had been in the Melbourne group The Cheks (1980–1982) with the exception of McQuade, who had been a member of The Ears. "That's The Way", with Campbell on vocals, was pulled as the single from the EP, and received modest airplay on TV and radio.
