The eldest of the group, Fermac was born and raised in some of the nastiest neighbourhoods in New York. He has lived through many years of activist movements, and even became an activist himself during the Anthro-Rights Movement. After anthros won equal rights, he retired from activism and turned to his long love of jazz music. He played for a variety of bands on the jazz circuit, playing bass.

It was pure chance that Kobi happened to hear Fermac playing, his work having brought him to the bar in question. He was so impressed with his bass playing that, after he started forming the band, he arranged a meeting with Fermac and eventually persuaded him to join, as the bass player fancied a change of pace.

Like Cole, Fermac firmly believes in making music for the sake of making music. This has frequently led him into squabbles with the more excessive Alborke, but he enjoys his work too much to truly give up on this very dysfunctional band. He’s the sensible counterpoint to the likes of Alborke and Tucker, always speaking in straight, smart common sense. He tends to act as the “father figure” of the group, offering a shoulder to lean on when his band-mates need it.
