The Mackenzies were a popular local rock group, but were unable to gain significant critical acclaim, record sales or chart positions outside of Scotland. Internationally, they are best known as the group of which Shirley Manson – the lead singer of US alternative rock group Garbage – was once a background member.
The band came to prominence in the late 1980s after releasing two independent label singles, and were eventually signed to Capitol Records. After charting in the UK with their debut album, Good Deeds and Dirty Rags, and single release "The Rattler" the band failed to breakthrough, and were shifted to a number of different labels. The band splintered in 1993, leaving Manson, Metcalfe, Wilson and Kelly to form Angelfish to continue recording music. After Manson left for Garbage in 1994, the Mackenzies continued again until their final live show at the end of 1995.
