Although Phillis and Young were widely praised for their ability to harmonize their vocals, Clouds suffered from a lack of promotion and support within the industry and eventually disbanded in 1997.
Although Phillis was living in a small town in Tasmania and Young was living in London, the two occasionally reunited over the years to perform a few shows.
In late 2005 Phillis and Young resurrected their band under the name The Girls From The Clouds, launching a 5-track EP titled Lalalala.Note: There was also a British indie pop band in the 1980s called The Clouds.
