- The Shrubbies were an English pop group from Wallington, London, active from 1996 to 1998. Vocalist and guitarist Craig Fortnam, vocalist and bassist Sharron Saddington and former Cardiacs members Sarah Smith (vocals, saxophone, keyboards) and Dominic Luckman (drums) formed the band as Shrubby Veronica. They gigged enthusiastically in London for several years and then split up as Fortnam was disillusioned with playing the traditional indie rock toilet circuit. Fortnam had a chance meeting with William D. Drake which led to him joining Drake's band Lake of Puppies with Saddington. Fortnam and Saddington fell in love, forming the Shrubbies with Smith and Luckman. The band released an in 1997 and the lone album in 1999, following their dissolution. Fortnam later married Saddington and recruited musicians associated with Cardiacs to form the North Sea Radio Orchestra. (en)
