Bow Wow Wow was a New Wave band organized by Malcolm McLaren, who is better known as the manager of the Sex Pistols. McLaren used the former members of Adam & the Ants after Adam Ant's solo career began. McLaren was also going to use Boy George, later of Culture Club fame as a second lead singer, but he was deemed to be "too wild" for the band. Matthew Ashman, Leigh Gorman and David Barbarossa, along with Annabella Lwin on vocals, formed the band and began playing before Lwin quit in 1983 to pursue a solo career and the remaining trio became the Chiefs of Relief. After issuing a few albums, Ashman died from diabetes complications and Lwin and Gorman reunited to release Wild in the U.S.A. in 1998, adding Dave Calhoun and Eshan Khadaroo.

To help form this band, McLaren stole Adam's Ants away from him.
