ACE FINCHUM
Ace Finchum and Steevi Jaimz are the two founding members of the British Glam Rock band Steevi Jaimz Tigertailz. Ace Finchum is a friend of Steevi Jaimz who, in the mid-1980's, was lead vocalist for the Cardiff-based band, Tigertailz. At his suggestion, American-born Ace Finchum was hired as the band's drummer.
However, irreconcilable differences within the band led to Steevi's departure, whereupon he embarked on a solo career. Ace Finchum continued in Tigertailz for a few years until he was alledgedly alienated from the band's studio-sessions; studio time was booked, but without Ace's knowledge. This led to Ace's departure, after which the band changed their name to Wazbones and disappeared into obscurity for many years.
Since then, 1980's Glam Rock has undergone a revival in certain parts of Europe. With Ace Finchum once again available to play drums, Steevi and Ace have taken the opportunity to rekindle the magic of the early Tigertailz recordings, whilst also looking to the future. Their former bandmates opting not to participate, Steevi Jaimz and Ace Finchum have joined forces with guitarist Greg Karnage and bassist Darayuz Kaye to form the group Steevi Jaimz Tigertailz.
However, Wazbones has resurfaced using the Tigertailz name once more. The abandonment of this name was announced in 1995 by Wazbones bassist Pepsi Tate on the television program "Raw Power", also known as "Noisy Mothers". Steevi had asked all the original members to regroup as Tigertailz to promote the release of Original Sin after he was contacted by the album's promoter, but only Ace Finchum agreed.
