At 16, Nick Sheppard played the Legendary Roxy Club in London’s Covent Garden as a member of The Cortinas; one of the original wave of UK Punk Rock Groups. Three Blistering Singles, an Album, a ton of gigs and about two years later, that story ended… Nick moved to America for a year. San Francisco. Back to The UK. Played with a bunch of bands, Got a call from a Girlfriend – “do you want to audition for a band my mate works for?”“Maybe; who are they?”
“The Clash”
“Yeah, I could do that…”
Two years, one American and two European tours, a top 20 single and a highly controversial album later, that story ended… Nick carried on playing, DJ’ing, acting (Films and TV) and generally making a racket – Head, The New Egyptian Kings, The DomNicks are just a few of the bands he’s been in over the last 30 odd years.
And now he’s put together The Yung Pomeranians. A three piece; Nick on Guitar, Jamie Turner on Bass and Mitch Benson on Drums.
