NEIGHBOURHOOD UNIT

 


Indie rock band Neighbourhood Unit formed out of friends at Padua College in Brisbane in 1985. A truly great live band who won the 1987 QLD Rock Awards. The band released two singles on the Brisbane-based Bent Records label and were regulars at Bonapartes Hotel. They disbanded in 1990. Vocalist Damien Garvey became lead singer in the power-pop band, The Tellers. The Tellers released two albums, 'Flex' and 'Limited Movement'. He also became an actor starring on McLeod's Daughters, in a recurring role from 2001 until 2007.
