Biography

The Blue Aeroplanes were formed in Bristol, United Kingdom, in 1981 by Gerard Langley, his brother John Langley, and Wojtek Dmochowski, following their tenure in the new-wave group Art Objects. The trio, with the addition of Nick Jacobs, began performing under the new name at the King Street Art Gallery, quickly establishing a local following with a blend of spoken-word lyrics and guitar-centric arrangements. Their first release, the self-produced Bop Art (1984), attracted attention from Fire Records, leading to the EP Tolerance (1986) and the 1987 album Spitting Out Miracles. Their breakthrough came in 1990 with Swagger, issued on Chrysalis/Ensign; its follow-up, Beatsongs (1991), peaked at number 33 on the UK Albums Chart. The band released Life Model (1994) and Rough Music (1995) on Beggars Banquet, followed by Cavaliers & Roundheads (2000) on Art Star. After a period of sporadic releases, they returned to major-label territory with the 2006 Swagger Deluxe reissue and the 2006 album Altitude on EMIâs Harvest imprint. In 2007 they issued Harvester, a collection of Harvest-label cover tracks, and performed until 2023, when they released Culture Gunthrough Last Night From Glasgow. The Blue Aeroplanes were noted for their sustained output across multiple labels and their enduring presence in the UK alternative rock scene.
