Kepone (band)

Kepone (band)

Kepone was an American indie rock band based out of Richmond, Virginia. Formed in 1991 (see 1991 in music) the band's name is derived from the Kepone crisis that occurred in the Richmond area in the 1970's. Originally formed as a sideproject of Michael Bishop of GWAR, the original lineup of the band also included guitarist Tim Harriss of Burma Jam and Hoi-Polloi as well as drummer Seth Harris of Honor Role. Kepone released their full length debut, "Ugly Dance", through Quarterstick Records in 1994. Harris left soon after to focus on environmental activism, and Ed Trask of the Holy Rollers replaced him. The band released two more albums, "Skin" and "Kepone", before their eventual break up. The three would play separately in other bands before reuniting to form American Grizzly with vocalist Bunny Wells. American Grizzly broke up in 2005.
