The Fizzbombs original line up was Katy McCullars - Vocals, Ann Donald - Bass, Angus McPake - Drums and Margarita Vasquez-Ponte - Guitar, B/Vocals.
Ann used to be in the Shop Assistants, Margarita was also in Jesse Garon & The Desperadoes and Rote Kapelle, and Angus was in just about every other band in Edinburgh.
This is the line up that recorded the Sign On The Line... / The Words That single on Narodnik (NRK - 003) and also the You Worry Me flexi disc on Wild Rumpus (shep 001)
Sign On The Line VideoKaty and Ann left the band after this, Katy went on to join The Secret Goldfish. The band continued with Sarah Kneale (also from the Shop Assistants) taking over on bass. This version of the Fizzbombs released the Surfin' Winter e.p. on Calculus Records (kit 002) and recorded a Janice long Session.
All the following pics are of the original Fizzbombs lineupThe Fizzbombs @ The Onion Cellar, Edinburgh, playing with Meat Whiplash and Jesse Garon and the Desperadoes (pics from that set soon). A bit on the blurry side but worth seeing.
The Fizzbombs @ the Onion Cellar # 2 - another night at the Onion Cellar, shouldn't have stood behind Angus while taking the pics but it must have seemed like a good idea at the time, first 2 pics include David Keegan from the Shop Assistants helping to set up.
The Fizzbombs @ The Venue, Edinburgh, a Speed 3 gig playing with the Dragsters (pics from that set soon as well)
If anyone has any live recordings of the Fizzbombs drop me a line, especially if they have a version of Fireball XL5. Cheers
Ross
