- Dave
Morris drums
- Listens
to (among others) The Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
The legendary tattooed colossus, dynamic, inventive and
energetic, all without spilling his pint! Dave
on my friend irma: “We’re a diverse, quirky bunch, making
music that we like and we hope everybody likes too.
We get a lot of support… people who come to see us
generally, and genuinely enjoy themselves”
- Tom
Kendon vocals &
guitar
- Works
the stage like he owns it. His
enthusiasm is infectious, his vocals compelling and his presence
undeniable! Listens
to Ezio, Lemon Jelly & much more. Tom
on ‘the ultimate Irma hook’ : “It would be one of those
infectious things that you would find yourself whistling to, even
if you can’t whistle. And if you ever spotted a milkman (although they are a rare
breed these days), he, or she would always be whistling it. It’ll be the song that people hear in their heads first
thing in the morning, and can’t get out for the rest of the day.
Guy
Henderson guitars & electronics
His
ambition for the band is to make a decent record, and tour and see
the world. Guy
on his equipment: “I’ve probably got one of the most
strangest and out-there effects boards in the country.
I’ve gotta get something than someone else hasn’t got,
that someone doesn’t know about.
I’ve got in touch with inventors around the country that
make small hand made effects, all completely analogue”
- Tim
Glasswell
bass guitar
- Listens
to lots, including The Who and Marillion, and keeps the irma
archive in order.
Tim
on the band dynamics:” we have spent a lot of time together
and we’ve got used to each other. I don’t think there’s
anything we wouldn’t say to each other, as we’re all very
honest. There is a
certain something between the four of us that works, 99% of the
time!
