The Flashcubes began life in Syracuse in 1977 as a power pop band, inspired by punk but also influenced by The Raspberries, Badfinger, The Beatles, and The Kinks.
They played across the US and supported The Jam, The Ramones, The Runaways, The Police, The Romantics, and Joe Jackson.
They released two singles, Christi Girl and Wait Till Next Week, on their own label, Northside Records, and a major label deal seemed certain.
Paul Armstrong was replaced by Mick Walker in 1979, and The Flashcubes broke up in 1980.
When Rhino Records included Christi Girl on a power pop anthology CD in 1993, The Flashcubes reunited and have stayed together since, releasing six CDs, including a live album from their first Japanese tour.
