Rebel Heels, Atlantic Records, and Her Solo Debut
Along with guitarist and songwriter Michael King, Larin formed Press. The band later added Danny Cox as drummer/percussionist. The band changed its name to Rebel Heels and signed with Atlantic Records in 1987.
Rebel Heels' first album, One by One by One (1988), produced by Rupert Hine, served to establish her fan base in the US, UK, Australia, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands.
Rebel Heels folded after only one album but Atlantic Records retained Liz Larin as a solo artist. Her debut album, Test Your Faith, was released in 1993.

Famous quotes containing the words rebel, atlantic, solo and/or debut:
“I can’t bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“I thought that when they said Atlantic Charter, that meant me and everybody in Africa and Asia and everywhere. But it seems like the Atlantic is an ocean that does not touch anywhere but North America and Europe.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“All mothers need instruction, nurturing, and an understanding mentor after the birth of a baby, but in this age of fast foods, fast tracks, and fast lanes, it doesn’t always happen. While we live in a society that provides recognition for just about every life event—from baptisms to bar mitzvahs, from wedding vows to funeral rites—the entry into parenting seems to be a solo flight, with nothing and no one to mark formally the new mom’s entry into motherhood.”
—Sally Placksin (20th century)
“Had I been less resolved to work, I would perhaps had made an effort to begin immediately. But since my resolution was formal and before twenty four hours, in the empty slots of the next day where everything fit so nicely because I was not yet there, it was better not to choose a night at which I was not well-disposed for a debut to which the following days proved, alas, no more propitious.... Unfortunately, the following day was not the exterior and vast day which I had feverishly awaited.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
