Publish date: 2022-02-15

Bobby Gillespie wife-Scottish musician and instrumentalist, Robert Gillespie was born on June 22, 1961 in Springburn, Scotland.

Gillespie was born to Bob Gillespie who ran for the Labour Party in the 1988 Govan by-election, which Jim Sillars of the Scottish National Party won. Bob Gillespie was a former SOGAT union officer.

At the age of 10, Gillespie relocated to Glasgow’s Mount Florida neighborhood on the south side, where he attended King’s Park Secondary School.

Bobby Gillespie career

The Jesus and Mary Chain’s drummer was Gillespie. He played bass in The Wake and was a roadie for Altered Images before joining The Jesus and Mary Chain.

Douglas Hart, the bassist for The Jesus and Mary Chain, requested Gillespie to join the group after the group’s original drummer quit after the publication of their debut song in 1984 because they were friends.

The only two drums in Gillespie’s modest drum set were a floor tom and a snare, both of which he played while standing up, emulating Velvet Underground drummer Moe Tucker.

Gillespie contributed to the band’s debut studio album, Psychocandy, which was widely praised when it was published in 1985. With his own band, Primal Scream, Gillespie had already released a single by this point, but to little notice.

Gillespie has continued to work for Primal Scream, the band he co-founded with guitarist Jim Beattie in 1982, throughout his career as a drummer.

Early in 1986, Gillespie did his final concert with The Jesus & Mary Chain before leaving to focus on Primal Scream.

The group released two singles the following year after signing with Creation Records. But it wasn’t until Gillespie departed the Jesus and Mary Chain and guitarists Andrew Innes and Robert Young joined the group in the middle of 1986 that Primal Scream really began to gain momentum.

The B-side “Velocity Girl” ended up on NME’s C86 cassette compilation, a grouping of unsigned pop acts that shaped the UK’s indie pop scene in the middle of the 1980s.

The emerging acid house culture grew to dominate Britain’s underground music scene as the 1980s came to an end.

More Light, the new album of Primal Scream, was begun in January 2010 and released in May 2013.

A well-received album called Chaosmosis with songs like “100% or Nothing” and “Trippin’ on Your Love” was released in March 2016.

In July 2021, he and Jehnny Beth published their duet album Utopian Ashes under the joint name “Bobby Gillespie and Jehnny Beth”. Music critics gave Utopian Ashes “generally positive reviews” with a score of 80 out of 100.

To promote the singles “Chase it Down” and “Remember We Were Lovers,” two videos with the duo were filmed and posted on YouTube.

Tenement Kid, a biography about Gillespie’s youth in Springburn, Glasgow in the 1960s, his introduction to punk rock, his subsequent revelation as an artist, and his time leading up to the release of Screamadelica, was released in late 2021.

The autobiography of Gillespie is written with both passion and elegance, according to the Scotsman, while Tenement Kid is “a thrilling read,” according to the Irish Times.

According to Will Hodgkinson of The Times, the Primal Scream frontman “writes movingly about his troubled youth” in his review of the “elegantly written tale.”
