Description/History:
The group was formed in 1981, using a moniker that Alison Moyet, veteran of a number of southeast Essex based punk and rock bands, had seen on the labels of old blues albums: Yazoo Records,although Clarke later confessed that this came from mis-hearing the name of the mouth instrument Kazoo which was popular in the late 1970s.
Clarke had been the main songwriter in Depeche Mode, who at that point had recorded one album and three singles for Mute Records, including the hits "New Life" and "Just Can't Get Enough".
Clarke surprised many by quitting Depeche Mode just as they were beginning to reap success, claiming that they "just weren't getting on, really", forming Yazoo with the then relatively unknown Moyet. Mute Records continued to release the output of this new Clarke project.
The band was licensed to Sire Records in the United States.

Petition:
This year is Yazoo's 27th Anniversary and the celebrate they have decided to tour Europe and the USA.I would like to try to get them to do some dates here in Australia.
I'm not really fussed as to which states , as I would travel to any of them to see them. I'm just hoping to get as many Yazoo fans as possible to sign this petition and then I will forward it on to Mute Records and hope for the best.
It is a dream of mine to see Yazoo live surely I can't be the only one.
Joshua.
