Jack Pedler, drummer:
Jack was on drums with Buxton Kastle when the young Daniel Lanois met the group It was Dan's first recording ever. Jack gained further recognition with Canadian acts such as Ray Materick, Teenage Head, and the Dave Rave Conspiracy.
Ever restles, Jack travelled to NYC and joined Coyote Shivers ( producer of "Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet"). They toured extensivley, opening for KISS, as well as recording both the critally aclaimed Coyote Shivers debut album and a song on the sound track for the hit teen movie "Empire Records".
Lifetimes of experience gained on the road and performing down in Manhattan's anti-folk scene inspired the prophetic album "Fairyland It Ain't". Lyrics that frighten and thrill combined with dynamic, energetic tunes dazzeled the president of Mutiny Records. Jack was quickly signed ...

Kevin Twigg, drummer:
I was born and raised on the south shore of Long Island, NY in 1956. My parents were Brooklyn born, and moved out to the suburbs on the the heels of the Levitown craze. I have 3 sisters and a brother. My brother moved to Florida with my folks, but the rest of us live within 20 minutes of where we were raised. I guess we liked the sunny south shore!
My earliest drumming memories are of Holiday parades and the swing records that my father listened to. Those drums really touched my soul! I would get great adreneline rushes when I heard the power of the drums. By the second grade, I started banging on laundry hampers that I turned upside.
At the end of the third grade, the band teacher was recruiting students for the next year. 30 future drummers showed up to get the opportunity to bounce each individual (borrowed) stick on the drum three times.That was the first time I ever played a real drum. MAN, WAS I HOOKED!!!!! The teachers name was George Raynor, and he was a true bandsmith. For concerts he would dress up in a Sousa-like uniform, and when he lifted his baton, he got respect! ...
