U-Bombs is a new wave/power pop band from Adelaide, South Australia.
Biography[]
Irving and the U-bombs first appeared in 1977 at private parties, anti-nuclear rallies and political/social justice benefit shows before establishing some weekly residencies at various city and suburban hotels. The band grew to a five piece and dropped the 'Irving' from the bands name and subsequently released the single 'Give Me A Medal' in 1978.
In 2013, after an absence of 32 years, the Ubombs started rehearsing, recording and then staged a comeback show in Adelaide. They performed at such venues as the Governor Hindmarsh Hotel alongside such acts as Fear And Loathing, Meat Tray and She's The Band
