The Clefs

The Clefs was an Australian pop-rock group that formed in Adelaide in the early 1960s.
Under the leadership of keyboardist Tweed Harris the band performed as The Clefs from 1963 to 1967.
Vocalist Barrie \"The Bear\" McAskill took over the group from Harris in 1967 and renamed it Levi Smith's Clefs.
Throughout its career, the Clefs was notable as a training ground for young performers and its various line-ups included musicians who went to form many notable Australian rock groups of the late 1960s and early 1970s.

The Clefs formed in Adelaide during 1963 by organist Tweed Harris.
The early line-up included Trevor Pridham (vocals), Les Tanner (guitar), Michael Atkins (drums), Dennis Marshall (sax) and Bruce Howe (bass).
Another early recruit was vocalist Pat Aulton, who went on to become one of Australia's most successful record producers.
The Clefs became an in-demand dance band on Adelaide's thriving club and dance circuit.
Barrie McAskill (ex-Fabulous Drifters) replaced Aulton as vocalist in 1965 and the line-up became Harris, Howe, Tanner, McAskill, Bob Jeffrey (sax) and Vince Jones (drums, also ex-Fabulous Drifters).

The Clefs issued three singles in 1966, \"I Can Only Give You Everything\" / \"Roberta\" and \"Last Night\" / \"March of the Siamese Twins\" (both released on EMI's Columbia label) and \"A Boy Like Me\" / \"Bring It to Jerome\" (on the Phonovox label).
In early 1967 Tweed Harris quit the Clefs to put together a new 'supergroup', recruiting players from several noted bands of the day.
Tweed's new band, The Groove, enjoyed great success in Australia in the late 1960s; after its demise, Harris became a noted producer-arranger.
