Artist History In existence for over ten years, Tinmen was borne by Keith Gillard. Adding new members as old ones left, by 1991 the roster included Geoffrey Shellard on vocals and returning member Jason McKenzie on guitars. Since then, the influence of Tinmen has seen the techno-pop culture of Vancouver evolve. Various projects have at least one meber of Tinmen attached to them, such as the jazz/trip hop sounds of Fidgital, the techno-pop moodiness of Prometheus, and others.
