They released one single "NoGo" / "I'll Pretend To Kill You" in 1982 on their own Volatile Records label.[1] In early 1983 they were signed by Phonogram Records and released two further singles. In late 1983 the band toured as the support act for Tears For Fears this expanded touring line up included guest keyboardist/backing vocalist Nicky Holland along with Pat Tedd on guitar and Peter Evans on drums.However, success eluded them and the band split up in late 1984. Both Holland and Griffiths went on to tour with Tears For Fears in 1985 on The Big Chair world tour, and both would become highly involved with the band (Holland co-wrote most of 1989's The Seeds of Love album, and Alan Griffiths later co-wrote and co-produced Elemental (1993) and Raoul and the Kings of Spain (1995), as well as Roland Orzabal's 2001 solo album Tomcats Screaming Outside). Stuart Morgan went on to become a bass tech for U2.[2][3] In 2008 Bristol Archive Records released a downloadable album by The Escape called Is Nothing Sacred.[4] Sadly Alan Griffiths died on 23 March 2017 after a short illness.
