glo-worm produce chiming pop music of a nonbouncing variety that sounds pure, forlorn and unencumbered. Glo-Worm are at the heart of the ‘90s East Coast independent pop music scene that brought us Slumberland Records, Velocity Girl, Versus and chickfactor magazine. glimmer [KLP054] brings all the various glo-worm 45s together under one roof. It’s a real charmer, and now available for the first time as a long playing (LP) phonograph record.
glo-worm formed in Washington D.C., summer 1993 and features the voice of Pam Berry ( cofounder of chickfactor magazine) accompanied by Dan Searing (drums, percussion) and Terry Banks (guitar). Previously, Pam had sung in Black Tambourine. Terry played in Tree Fort Angst and a stint in English underground combo St. Christopher. Dan had been in Whorl. During the course of glo-worm’s two-and-a-halfish year lifespan, the band released three 7” EPs (issued by the Somersault, Slumberland and K labels) and had songs on a couple of
compilations, all leading up to the glimmer [KLP054] album, which compiled the 7” EPs and added a cover of The Cure’s ‘Friday I’m in Love’ and was released by K in 1996.
