Zipper

Zipper

Zipper has been played on NTS shows including 150 Session, with Bullets first played on 10 July 2016.

There is more than one band/artist with this name:

Formed in 1973, Zipper was the first band to release an album (simply called 'Zipper') on the Whizeagle Records label in 1974, with Lorry Erk on drums, Jim Roos on guitar, Greg Shadoan on bass and Fred Lee Cole on vocals. It's basically heavy rock with Led Zeppelin-overtones, raw and rocking.

The album is quite rare in its original form now, was re-released in 1994 as an LP/CD with two additional tracks.

Fred Cole went on to play in a few other bands with his wife Toody; first in Rats, then in Dead Moon, and after that last band's demise in 2006 currently in the Pierced Arrows.

Zipper is a 3 piece pop/punk band from Madrid, Spain. They released a mini cd on Cloudberry Records.

Zipper was a five piece band in Cardiff, Wales, UK from 1979-83 which drew considerable inspiration from The Kinks. Members of the band were Andy Brice (bass), Steve Wilson (guitar), Jon Calvin-Thomas (vocals), Mike Gale (guitar), and John Turner (drums). The biggest 'hit' was Life of Riley which was first released on Spanking Records and later released on Virgin and entered the UK single charts in 1979. It was also made a Mike Read single of the week on Radio 1 in the UK. Andy Brice has myspace page on Zipper: : http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=404397638.

4) Zipper are from Sydney and play new wave pop. Featuring members of Wireheads, Nylex, Rule of Thirds, Divine Rip and Mains. https://urticariarecords.bandcamp.com/album/dreamers-gate
