    Biography

    78 Saab were a rock band from Australia that consisted of Ben Nash (vocals and guitar), Jake Andrews (guitar and vocals), Garth Tregillgas (bass and vocals) and Nicholai Danko (drums and percussion). Their debut album, "Picture a Hum, Can't Hear a Sound", was released in 2000 and received significant radio airplay with "Sunshine", "Karma Package Deal", "Smile" and "Jack Frost" all achieving high rotation on Triple J. 78 Saab's second album, "Crossed Lines", was released in October 2004. Singles from the album included "Beat of Your Drum" and "No Illusions", the latter of which gave the band their biggest taste of commercial radio play to date. 78 Saab's third album, "The Bells Line" was released on 29 September 2007. "One of These Days" and "Drive" from the album again provided the band with national radio exposure. 78 Saab released their fourth and final album, "Good Fortune", on 15 October 2010. A film clip for the song "Warm Jets" was released and the band toured Australia in early 2011. In late 2012, almost 18 years after their formation, 78 Saab made the decision to disband. The band performed their final Sydney gig at the Annandale Hotel in December of that year. Although this was intended as their swan song, they resurfaced to play in Canberra one last time on 11 March 2013 as part of the capital's 100th anniversary celebrations.
