John Davies

John Davies played drums in Chicago bands from early 1978 to March 1981, including Gary Jones (July 1980 – March 1981), Popperz (as Chester Vomit) (1978), The Martian Plan (1978), a pop synth band called Fame (1980), and a side project featuring members of The Dadistics and The Martian Plan that was alternately called The Reptilians or The Poodle Stabbers. He has not performed publicly since 1989, but on rare occasions still records in his home studio. In 1995 his alter ego, poet Chester Voumette, created a new musical sub-genre known as “Word Grunge.”  Mr. Davies currently resides in the Chicago suburbs with his family, including his son, progressive metal guitarist, composer, published poet, and teen idol, Pat Davies.
