History
The only constant member of the band during its more than twenty years of existence has been Glenn Melia, and, during this time, Melia and St. Christopher have recorded with many well-known indie labels, including Sarah, Bus Stop, Vinyl Japan, Elefant, Slumberland, Caff, and Parasol. The band probably achieved greatest recognition for the single "All of a Tremble", released in 1989.
The original line-up of the band also featured Terry Banks, who went on to lead Tree Fort Angst.
St. Christopher began gigging again mid-2007 with new members Jim Fletcher and Matt Collinge, and Glenn is currently writing new material for release early 2008. In 2007, a compilation album of their previous releases titled Lost at Sea - The Sarah Recordings was released by Plastilina Records. Their last record is the CD single "Burnout".
