They soon signed to Sarah Records, releasing the single Clearer in 1991, and soon took on more members, including singer/cellist Gemma Townlet and second guitarist Harvey Williams. Clearer was followed by several singles and two LPs, If Wishes Were Horses and Unisex. Their final release, The Bank of England, was released in 1998 on Shinkansen Records; by then, Girdler and Stewart were the only original members of the band. Girdler and Stewart were also involved in two other bands, Arabesque and Beaumont.
Blueboy's songwriting touches on the timeless indie-pop motifs of intimacy and vulnerability, with a modicum of sexual ambiguity, both in lyrics and cover artwork. Their sound combines the jangly guitar-based pop sound of their genre with elements of bossa nova and shoegazer.

River
by Blueboy
i can forget my loneliness by chewing gum
stumble into several arms and strip away the day's decay
sadness is a way of life for bitter me
but don't you quote me the prophets
'cause i know it's wrong
but it's not for long
if i had eyes like river would you take some notice of me?
if i had lips like river would you talk to me?
now i walk the streets of london
and i look around at the people rushing by
where do they go? do they even know?
i hear they staple sequins to their sooty souls
just to tempt this acolyte from his real world
his only world
if i had eyes like river
would you take some notice of me?
if I had lips like river would you talk to me now?
talk to me now
talk to me now
talk to me now
