The Vapors

Relatively short-lived (1979 to 1981, then reformed in June 2016 to present) new-wave rock band from Guildford, UK, formed around Paul Weller's father, John Weller, they enjoyed worldwide success with their second single "Turning Japanese." After 2 albums, tours of the US, UK and Australia, subsequent disenchantment with the insincerity of the record industry and a lukewarm reception to their second album, the band dissolved. The band started touring again in 2016 and in March 2020, the band released the singles "Crazy" and "Together." In May 2020, the band released their 3rd album "Together."
