LISA BRENNEIS
The bandleader and songwriter for Code Blue, Dean Chamberlain is best known as one of the founders of the 1980’s new wave band the Motels, which were formed all the way back in 1971. Originally called the Warfield Foxes, the bandmembers were Lisa Brenneis (bass), Dean Chamberlain (lead guitar), Chuck Wada (rhythm guitar) and Martha Davis (vocals, guitar). Chamberlain eventually tired of the Bay Area scene and moved to Los Angeles; the rest of the bandmembers joined him there by 1975. Lisa Brenneis had originally been the impetus for the formation of the band, but she dropped out shortly after the move.
