About Me


Roll the video below and revel in the band’s 1991 appearance on the legendary Jersey-based Uncle Floyd Show!
Thanks to Pat for uncovering this gem and making it available to us.
Please visit Pat’s most excellent YouTube page for more Uncle Floyd Shows and other assorted goodies...

Begun in 1986 in Amherst, Massachusetts, The Vestrymen spread their folk-fringed powerpop - often psychedelicised - via the airwaves of college and independent radio. After several independent releases - and lots of miles in vans and pick-up trucks - the band retired from active duty in 1994. But it actually never ends, does it? DOES IT?

More Vestrymen songs can be heard over at OurStage.com

"Never Did Too Well"

"Never Did Too Well" was written in 1988 or 1989 and first appeared on our 1990 LP/cassette. A sprightly tempo and "woodsy" acoustic strumming bubbling beneath bittersweet lyrics (it's right there in ...
