Founded in March 1975 in London and Melboune, Little River Band emerged from the previously disbanded Mississippi. Founding members include Glenn Shorrock, Beeb Birtles and Graeham Goble (at that time still written as "Graham") who can be considered the core of what the idea of the band was about. LRB's second album published in the US ( Diamantina Cocktail) took them way up in the US charts and opened the doors ("Help Is On Its Way") for many Australian artists to come. In 1988 an attempt to regroup some of the initial band members yielded the album Monsoon which spawned the US hit single "Love Is A Bridge". Due to heavy changes in the band's lineup the group which is still touring today doesn't consist of any founding member anymore. The before mentioned members regrouped in 2002 as Birtles Shorrock Goble. « hide
