Mama Quilla II - Band Members

Band Members

Personnel changed over the band’s five year existence, but Mama Quilla II was usually a seven-piece all-female band. The main band personnel were as follows: Lorraine Segato (vocals, guitar), Lauri Conger (keyboards, vocals), Linda Jain (drums, percussion), Linda Robitaille (saxophone, vocals), Susan Sturman (guitars), Catherine McKay (bass, vocals) and then Jacqui Snedker (bass, vocals), Maxine Walsh (percussion), Susan Cole (vocals and piano) and BJ Danylchuk (keyboards,vocals). Nancy Poole acted as the group's manager. Billy Bryans, who would later become a bandmate of Segato and Conger in Parachute Club, also sometimes performed with the band on percussion; as the only man performing with an otherwise all-female band, his bandmates jokingly gave him a T-shirt which read "Token Male".
