Self-described “acoustical power trio" Brighter was founded in Worthing, United Kingdom by singer/guitarist Keris Howard, his keyboardist girlfriend Alison Cousens and bassist Alex Sharkey. Signing to the now-legendary Sarah Records, the group issued its debut single "Around the World in Eighty Days" in August 1989, followed in February by "Noah's Ark". Absent a flexi-disc release, "Next Summer", Brighter wasn't heard from again until late 1991, when they issued the full-length Laurel; the EP Disney followed in October 1992, and was the trio's swan song.
