Screemer

about

Screemer is the first band by singer and actor Zaine Griff, signed to Arista Records. The band was formed while Lindsay Kempe, with whom Griff was studying dance, was on tour in Australia.

It was a fast song by Glitterband standards and sounded a lot like them. It deserved sucess but bombed. Dene was dumped and Glen Mikkelson - a New Zealander - was added on vocals and the' Interplanetary Twist' single was released. Screemer appeared on a couple of Saturday morning kids tv shows and Eddie Kidd ( Britains Evil Kenevil - remember him ? ) did a photoshot in one of Screemers promotional cap sleeve t-shirts which appeared in various teenage girls mags but it all came to nothing. At about this time and on a new years eve a mildly unusual event happened : Screemer were playing the Three Rabbits pub in Romford, East London , when they let a new local band use their instruments to play in the break. The local band was 'Iron Maiden', who played some original stuff and I seem to reme
