Ross Anthony Jarman[1] (born 22 September 1984 in Wakefield, United Kingdom) is the drummer with English rock band The Cribs.
[edit] The Cribs
Ross was born in Wakefield, and has spent his childhood growing up there.
Ross formed The Cribs in the early 2000s with brothers Ryan and Gary in Wakefield
The band are known for their short, punchy tunes with pop riffs and a lo-fi sound - influenced by bands like Huggy Bear and Beat Happening. The Cribs have released three albums on the Wichita label, the first two being The Cribs (produced by Ed Deegan and Bobby Conn), and The New Fellas (produced by Edwyn Collins, singer in influential indie band Orange Juice). The Cribs' third album, Men's Needs, Women's Needs, Whatever was released on 21 May 2007; the record was produced by Alex Kapranos of Franz Ferdinand.
Ross is known by friends for his dry sense of humour, and being a very down to earth person. When asked about being designated the band's drummer Jarman said; "As far as me being on the drums, I’m sure it's purely to do just with the fact that I’m the youngest so I get the worst instrument. You know, like the oldest kid gets the biggest room; the youngest gets the smallest bedroom. The youngest gets the drum kit while the oldest gets a guitar and sing at the front.[2]
