Biography

Nigel Pegrum played drums with an early line-up of the Small Faces, then with Lee Grant And The Capitols before joining Spice, who subsequently changed their name to Uriah Heep and replaced him with a drummer who had a heavier style of playing. He then joined the art-rock/prog-rock band Gnidrolog. He joined Steeleye Span in June 1973, when the folk group finally decided to add a permanent drummer into the band.

In 1979, Pegrum joined up with Steeleye Span bassist Rick Kemp to create Plant Life Records. As of 2007, he was living in Cairns, Queensland.
