Around the same time, Virgin & Rumour started the post punk psychadelic group Sekret Sekret in which they achieved 5 No1 positions in the Australian Independent charts. Sekret Sekret lasted 7 years and were the major influence for such bands as the Triffids, The Go - Betweens and the Church. Sekret Sekret later became The Cruel Sea getting Tex Perkins on vocals.
David spent the next 10 years in Europe playing extensively and recording. David has now recorded his 2nd album with Dan Rumour, the first was "Landlord Green" released in 1992. The latest release titled "VIRGIN & RUMOUR" recorded Winter 2004 is a special coming together for these two elder statesmen of Australian Underground Music.
These days David likes to play solo or duo gigs, usually with some tasteful electric guitar accompaniment. Most recently he has toured the East Coast of Australlia with Cat Power, Lloyd Cole, Billy Bragg and Tim Freedman.
He has finished recording and will be releasing a new David Virgin album early this year. He's now living in Dublin recording and promoting his music.
