The Furys (new wave band)

The lineup of Jeff Wolfe-vocals, Gregg Embrey, bass; Gary Embrey, drums; Chaz Maley, guitar; Joe Conti, keyboards built on their growing following and saw them play extensively in a growing network of New Wave and Scene Clubs, playing in Los Angeles, Orange County, Riverside, Long Beach, and San Diego.

In October ’78, The Furys were asked by local promoter Paul Greenstein if the band would play at a new venue he was launching, a restaurant in the heart of Los Angeles’ Chinatown.

During this time, the band continued its busy gigging schedule, making numerous appearances at the Cuckoo's Nest in Orange County, the Nugget a Go Go in Long Beach, and Hollywood venues such as Gazzarris and the Whisky.

With a growing fanbase centered north of their Orange County origins, the band needed to change its home base and move up to Los Angeles.

The move led to a lineup change of switching in Marty Korth, bass;  Bob Beland, guitar, with Gregg Embrey moving to guitar and Jeff Wolfe continuing vocals; the drum seat was in rotation at this time as they continued to grow as a live act and critical part of the New Wave and Punk scene.

The band during this time consisted of Jeff Wolfe, Glen Laughlin, guitar, Bobby Lane, bass, and Francis White, drums.

With the sales, streaming, and radio response to the album, Jeff and Dave have set about putting together a live band and plans for a new recording.

The Furys New Wave Hit Parade was released in August 2023, chronicling the group’s three vinyl singles in the 70s, the “Indoor/Outdoor” mini album from 1986, and a bonus track, The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore, recorded with Brian Wilson's string section in 2016.
