*
Andy Kerr is a Canadian-born musician, originally from Victoria, B.C. and currently residing in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Kerr is best known as the former guitarist, frequent vocalist, and co-songwriter in the progressive punk rock/punk jazz band
NoMeansNo . He has also recorded and performed as a solo artist, and his current group is Two Pin Din. Kerr initially appeared Victoria's punk rock scene in the late 1970s as the singer and guitarist in the punk rock groups Dioxyn and The Infamous Scientists. Founded in 1979, the latter group released two EPs prior to disbanding in 1982. The final lineup of this group included NoMeansNo drummer John Wright.
Kerr's first project after leaving Canada found him collaborating with Victoria musician
Scott Henderson (of Shovelhed and the Showbusiness Giants, among other groups) in an unorthodox manner – via airmail. The pair would individually experiment with home recordings and mail each other cassette tapes of their efforts for the other to elaborate upon. Calling themselves Hissanol, the experimental group released two full-length albums on the Alternative Tentacles label. Kerr has been working with former Dog Faced Hermans drummer Wilf Plum in a two-piece guitar rock project called Two Pin Din. The group released their debut record, In Case of Fire Break Glass in 2008. *Source Wikipedia
