Hurrah! were a British jangle pop band formed in the early 1980s and active until 1991. Two band members traded off lead vocals on track-by-track basis, giving the band two distinctly different sounds.
Formed in the early 1980s and originally known as the Green-Eyed Children, Hurrah! initially consisted of Paul Handyside (born 28 September 1960, Newcastle-upon-Tyne; guitar/vocals), David 'Taffy' Hughes (b. 16 March 1961, Southmoor, Northumberland; guitar/vocals), David Porthouse (b. 17 August 1961, Gateshead;(bass), and Mark Sim (drums). Sim was soon replaced by Damien Mahoney.
When Mahoney left in 1986 to join the police force, after exhaustive auditions, the band eventually recruited Steve Price (b. 27 June 1965, Newport; drums) as a permanent replacement drummer. Adrian Evans (b. 6 March 1963, County Durham, England) became the band's fourth drummer when Steve Price left the band and emigrated to America.
