==History==
The band was formed in the early 1990s by the Preston-born Avy (vocals, guitar), recruiting American-born Oxaal (guitar, cello, keyboards) and multi-instrumentalist Gavin Cheyne on bass.〔Strong, Martin C. (1999) ''The Great Alternative & Indie Discography'', Canongate, ISBN 0-86241-913-1, p. 558〕〔Larkin, Colin (2006) ''The Encyclopedia of Popular Music'', Oxford University Press, ISBN 978-0195313734, p. 386〕 The band signed to Nude Records after being championed by Brett Anderson of Suede and released their debut album ''Matinee'' in 1994, which was described by ''CMJ New Music Monthly'' as "moody aggression with bite", and by Allmusic writer Ned Raggett as "an enjoyable, moody debut".〔〔Taraska, Julie (1995) "(Sharkboy ''Matinee'' )", ''CMJ New Music Monthly'', March 1995, p. 41, retrieved 2012-05-01〕〔 Original members included Toby Shippey (trumpet), Dil Davies (drums, percussion) Alan Stirner (guitar) and Nick Wilson (keyboards, trumpet, percussion).〔 Four singles in 1995 preceded the band's second album, ''The Valentine Tapes'', which included Dickon Hinchcliffe of Tindersticks on violin.〔 The band carried on in various forms, including drummer Steve Hewitt joining the outfit following the departure of Dil Davies. They released a limited edition 500 vinyl boxed set featuring cover versions of lounge classics and a thrash feedback version of the Serge Gainsbourg penned ''Je t'aime... moi non plus which remains a rarity. Following the demobbing of original members after the second album's release, Avy, Adrian Oxaal and Jessica Fischer (bass/cello) played to appreciative audiences in New York and Los Angeles in 1997.
Oxaal went on to join James. Toby Shippey is a founder member of Salsa Celtica. Steve Hewitt joined Placebo before going on to form his own band Love Amongst Ruin. Avy re-recruited Oxaal and Dil Davies, the band's original drummer during Summer 2015, when Sharkboy went into pre-production for a new EP.
