Bio / Background
Jeff Tracy and Lee Elliott originally formed Blue Cartoon in California, but relocated to Austin in 1992 where they eventually hooked up with Austin locals Barry Simon, David Loren and John Valadez. The band focused on writing and playing well-crafted pop tunes influenced by 60's California pop, British Invasion, Motown and the heyday of The Brill Building songwriters.
The band soon found a musical ally in songwriter/producer Ron Flynt from the legendary power pop band 20/20. Ron recorded and produced the band's self-titled debut in 1997, which was released on the band's own Aardvark Records label. Several national pop magazines have published favorable reviews of the CD, and it was named one of the Top Ten Albums of 1997 by the Canadian netzine, Shake It Up!
Blue Cartoon's second full-length CD, Downtown Shangri-La, was recorded and produced by the band in their own Flambay Studios. Downtown Shangri-La was named a Pop Essentials disc for 1999 by Alan Haber's PurePop webzine.
