Mr Epp And The Calculations

Mr Epp was founded in the early 80's, between 1980 and 1981. The name came from the high school math teacher of John Smitty .
Then, John Smitty (or Jeff Smith) as vocalist, Mark Arm as guitarist and Darren Morey as bassist founded the band, all three went to the same school. Darren's brother friend Peter Wick joined them as drummer.
Maire Masco, co-founder of the maganize Desperate Times, stated that she had to chase Mark and John over the Seattle streets because was hard to get in touch with them, she did not know them and wanted to meet with them. Mark Arm had written a letter to that magazine in order to critizese his own band. The Maire told Mark and John that she wanted to book Mr Epp, then Mark Arm said something like "Oh my God, that mean we have to get instruments".
