Variant Cause

Variant Cause

Band,
Alternative

The Pacific Northwest rock scene of the 1980s was a hotbed of creativity, with a multitude of bands developing uncommon sounds in relative geographic isolation. Variant Cause was one of those bands. Jan and Mark had been in Spokane's punk/wave group Sweet Madness, before re-forming as Next Exit and moving to Seattle in 1982. They changed their name to Variant Cause in 1985 and performed live and recorded till 1991. They are still gigging 24/7 on YouTube. Jan Gregor, Mark Fenton, Greg Morlan, Ryan Collins, Richard Hogan, Frank Holman, Tony Bortko, Geoff Zehring
