Artist History John Cooper - writer, producer and acting whip cracker for Fat Lung - has whored himself out in all sorts of musical forms over the years. He has played guitar, bass, keyboards, done sound for, opened or otherwise associated with the likes of Nazareth, Kim Mitchell, Lee Aaron, Wide Mouth Mason, David Wilcox, Ivanna Santilli, Roach Motel, Gary McCracken(Max Webster), The Lead Singer Quit, etc... Jamie McDowell is completely at home on any instrument that is unfortunate enough to get near him. JMs credits include the original bands Wub, Force of Nature, Gypsy Rose and Bog as well as a virtual smorgasbord of "A" club cover and tribute bands. He has recently been spotted hob-knobbing with Big Wreck and The Matthew Good Band. Jeff Jordan's bombastic drumming has fueled the groove of such bands as The New Ministers, Chewy, The Stand and The Prostitutes. Secret Agent Zephryn Cow, Warlock to the Stars was born in 1997 at the age of 26. He has no history that can be discussed in mixed company and only makes appearances on stage or in bed.

Group Members Secret Agent Zephryn Cow, Warlock to the Stars plays guitar, keyboards and sings. Jamie McDowell punishes the bass and sings. Jeff Jordan beats up the beats.
