There are four bands known as The Creepers: 1). The Creepers were an English rock music group, formed in Manchester, UK in 1982, originally as Marc Riley & The Creepers. Guitarist/keyboardist Riley was booted out of the Fall in 1982, reportedly over an unseemly penchant for pop. His prolific output as a solo artist and bandleader, however, only slightly warrants such categorization. Although Riley shares his former group's taste for deadpan vocals and distorted guitar and keyboard sounds, freed of Mark E.

The group effectively disbanded in 1993 but reformed in 1998. Gilbert left in 2001 to look after her and Morris' children and was replaced by guitarist/keyboardist Phil Cunningham.
Jeffrey Lewis is an American singer/songwriter and comic-book artist, part of the Anti-folk movement.
