Jennifer's Veil was a continuation of the Mercy Beat with three new band members, Troy, Jason and Andrew. They took their band name from the title of a Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds song.

Members

Highlights

  • Bassist Andrew Charon was known to play barefoot.
  • Once opened a show with a 15 minute tape loop featuring thunderstorms, quotes from Bono, samples from Stars on 45 and other found sounds.
  • Opened all their shows with their goth-surf instrumental, 'Surfin' Dead'. Written by Chris Meyer when he was with Mercybeat. He was lightly miffed when the band played it without him.
  • John Lamb was known to heckle the band.
  • Phil often wore ridiculous clothes.
  • Andrew and Phil "reformed" the band in October of 2015 to re-record some of the songs (Crack of Dawn, Step on Me).

Shows

  • Played often at the Broadway Junction

Discography

  • A limited edition cassette was given away at one show.
