Early in their career they performed as The Geeza Rock'n'Roll Show. The current lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, Terry Halliday, has led the band through several incarnations since 1975 with founding members Cini, Watts, Marshall and Webb departing. The remaining four members released Geeza's only album to date, Streetlife, in late 1977. The album spawned a top 100 single, "Run 'n' Hide" on the Australian Kent Music Report Singles Chart. The group disbanded in 1979, before being reformed by Halliday in 2010, as the sole member from their 1970s line-up. Originally named "Solid Ash" in 1973 with the line up including Martin Adamson (bass & vocals) Gabby Venditti (Lead Guitar) Ray Falzon (Rhythm Guitar) Ian Webb (drums). After a few successful gigs it was decided to bring in a dedicated singer, after a few interviews (one included AC/DCs Dave Evans) Tony Cini was chosen and Martin began penning originals songs. With the new line up with Tony, Gabby Martin Ray & Ian, Martin came up with the name Geeza one night after band practice and was insistent it be spelled that way, no opposition so it stuck. Martin acted as the band's manager and the band played many high profile gigs playing a mix of blues-rock and originals, until they were discovered by Steve Rondo, a local entrepreneur with a high profile out in the Sydney West area. Steve Rondo took Geeza out of the school and local dance circuit and into serious events often supporting top name acts such as Chain, Sherbet, Buffalo and early AC/DC to name a few. In September 1974, the band underwent a significant change of style and we saw the departure of the two blues musicians Tony Cini and Ray Falzon, the new line up included Terry Meaney (then only 17) on vocals, Gabby Marshall (Venditti) on guitar, Marty Lee (Martin Adamson) on Bass Ian Marshall (Webb) on first drums and Alan Fraeil on second drums (ala Garry Glitter style). Steve Ronda had devised The Geeza Rock & Roll Show, a lavish (for those days) stage act that cabaret-style theatrical performances included exploding phone boxes and other extravagant props that were used to win over audiences across Sydney The band went on to perform live on the back of a flatbed truck as it drove around Parramatta in late 1975, in a similar manner to AC/DC who did the same early the next year.
