glimmer

glimmer

Glo-Worm produce chiming pop music of a non-bouncing variety that sounds pure, forlorn, and unencumbered. They are at the heart of the ā€˜90s East Coast independent pop music scene that brought us Slumberland Records, Velocity Girl, Versus, and Chickfactor magazine.

Glimmer 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., in the summer of 1993 and features the voice of Pam Berry (co-founder 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 had a stint in the English underground combo St. Christopher. Dan had been in Whorl.

During the course of Glo-Worm’s two-and-a-half-ish year lifespan, the band released three 7ā€ EPs (issued by the Somersault, Slumberland, and K labels) and had songs on a couple of compilations, all leading up to the Glimmer album. The album compiled the 7ā€ EPs and added a cover of The Cure’s ā€˜Friday I’m in Love’ and was released by K in 1996.
