In Yer Face

face facts

 

rob kennedy
lead vocals

rob delivers a performance that is energetic, enthusiastic and totally entertaining. always engaging the audience, his stage presence is like his character, larger than life!! from beginning to end, rob likes to interact with people on every level. vocally he sings almost any style of music such as elvis, oasis or even atomic kitten. once you have seen him “rock”, you will know you have been faced!! approaching his 14th year in the band, he still finds every performance challenging and rewarding.
rob says: “are you out there”

 

simon cambers
drums, backing vox

simon was born at an early age in a small fishing village deep in the heart of rural oxfordshire. both simons parents descended from a small known tribe in the galapagos islands called the hunni tribe. simons first language is galapish which has an immediately identifiable grunting sound when spoken. because of this simon was readily accepted in drumming circles and hence chose this as his career. simons interests include counting sand and writing the letter j. although getting older each year, simon remains the baby of the band!

 

mick cambers
bass, backing vox

after talking with his solicitor mick has finally been granted permission to disclose his past and present musical achievements. he always thought he was not related to simon. after tracing his family line back he found he was adopted and that he descended from the infamous welsh pirate, black morgan and was the love child of the great jaco pastorius. mick played in many bands all of which were better than tonys and robs, he finally made their dreams come true when the 3 of them formed IYF in the attic.
hobbies; standing in wide doorways
ambitions; to hit the perfect off beat note!

 

tony johansen
guitar, keys, backing vox

tony started playing guitar at the age of 5 for the 70's rock and roll band mud, when they split due to musical differences he quickly found work with a number of high profile bands over the next decade. some of the names maybe familar:- 999, ufo, journey and rush. however by the late 80's he became disilusioned with the business and diversified into fridge cleaning. it was at this time he suggested to old school friend robert kennedy that they should start up a dance beat combo, to earn extra air miles. this was the start of In Yer Face.
likes: being first at the buffet, champ cars,and cardboard boxes. dislikes: strats,people telling him to turn it down, and not having a pillow.
