Welcome to the Stewart/Gaskin Web site. Dave Stewart (keyboards) and Barbara
Gaskin (vocals) are English musicians who have been working together since 1981,
when their first single 'It's My Party' reached number one in the UK. The duo
release their music on their own independent Broken Records label and occasionally
perform live concerts.
Below are a list of pages containing information, pictures and some of the duo's music. We hope you'll find them
informative. To avoid any misunderstanding, please bear in mind that:
1. Dave Stewart of Stewart / Gaskin is not David A. Stewart of The
Eurythmics. Any resemblance is purely nominal!
2. This site focuses on the music of Stewart/Gaskin from 1981 to the present day, which can best be described as pop music for
grown-ups. If you want information on their earlier work, please click on 'Dave & Barbara's old bands' below.
Happy browsing!
