Zerra 1 Concert History

Founded in 1982 by the core duo of Paul Bell (keyboards/vocals, ex Lookalikes) and guitarist Grimmo AKA Andreas Grimminger AKA Andrias O'Gruama, later Cathal Coughlan's right hand man in Fatima Mansions. Between times he fronted his own band My Baby's Arm. The Irish quartet Zerra 1 had enough soaring harmonies and ringing guitars to follow in the footsteps of compatriots U2. And while commercial success never happened, Zerra 1 possessed too much talent to be written off as failed U2 impersonators.
