Rail were an Australian indie guitar pop group, which formed in 1993 as Sleeper. In 1994 they changed their name, first to Fragment and then to Rail. The initial line-up was Ashley Naylor on guitar and vocals, David Sayer on bass guitar, Dan Vertessy on vocals and guitar, and Ian Williams on drums. They released two albums, Bad Hair Life (1995) and Goodbye Surfing Hello God! (1997). At the ARIA Music Awards of 1996 they were nominated for Best New Talent for Bad Hair Life, while its lead single, "Immune Deficiency", was nominated for Breakthrough Artist – Single. The group disbanded in late 1998. Ian Gregory Williams died, by drowning, in mid-1999, aged 28.
