Sunday 27 February 2022. RIP NICK TESCO Nick Tesco, founder member and original lead vocalist of the Camberley punk reggae legends THE MEMBERS has died after a short illness at the age of 67 in London. Although his health had not been good for a while (he had not performed regularly since 2008) Nick was a fiery commentator on social media and a great writer, broadcaster and journalist. I saw them live over a dozen times in their heyday from 1978 to 1982...they had lots of great tracks.
