Con Bradley and the Blue Stars started out as Con Bradley and the K.J.'s which had formed ca. November 1964. This group met with a serious of difficulties like the size of the band. The group only had two members, which soon became three. So, it seemed after a short while the band disbanded.
Fraser was from Tunbridge Wells, Kent and was the most recent member to join the band.
On Sunday, March 11, 1965 Con Bradley and the Blue Stars made a tape of six of their numbers, which they intend to take along to Murry Browne, the city Entertainment and Publicity Officer, with a view to appearing at Youth Club dances.
There was also an article on Con Bradley and the Blue Stars in The Kent Herald of Wednesday, March 14, 1965.
