The band played multiple national tours across the United States and released one album, To the Listeners, in 1977, before disbanding in 1979.

1980

In the 1980s she moved to New York City and played in clubs as lead singer and songwriter of the power pop band Hide the Babies. This led to a residency at NYC concert venue CBGBs, during which Brazelton curated numerous concerts of bands and ensembles of diverse genres from the downtown NYC avant-garde scene as part of her "Real Music Series," featuring regular performances on multiple stages on Sundays at CB's Gallery.

1996

Dadadah has released two albums, Rise Up! in 1996 and Love Not Love, Lust Not Lust in 1998.

David Fricke wrote in a review of Dadadah in Rolling Stone that the band possessed "impressive nerve ... a pop-operatic pow ... orchestrated like Kate Bush kickin’ it with the Mingus Big Band."

Brazelton collaborated with composers Eve Beglarian, Lisa Bielawa, and Elaine Kaplinsky in 1996 as the band Hildegurls, performing electro-acoustic reinterpretations of medieval composer Hildegard von Bingen, most notably at the Lincoln Center Festival '98.

1998

Frank Oteri wrote of her: "Brazelton, like many of these new composers, is a composer-performer, and equally at home writing a string quartet or playing in a punk rock band."

2003

The band released a self-titled album in 2003 on the NYC record label Tzadik Records, to critical acclaim.

Bat was described by composer John Zorn as "twisted, powerful chamber rock blending a raucous punk aesthetic with vocal harmonies...complex, visionary".
