- Jon McClure, known as the Reverend, is lead singer and frontman of Reverend and the Makers and ex-vocalist of 1984 and Judan Suki. He claims that that the name "Reverend" became his moniker because "I'm a big mouth and always running on at people". Jon McClure was born in the Sheffield suburb Grenoside in 1981, and grew up there with his parents and brother Chris. He studied history and politics at the University of Sheffield, where he met many musical friends and colleagues, although he has known Ed Cosens since childhood and in Notre Dame High School, Sheffield. He then dropped out of university to become a poet, and began blogging on the internet. A brief spell working for McVitie's followed, before McClure quit due to an allergic reaction to Jammie Dodgers. A close friendship developed with Alex Turner lead singer of Arctic Monkeys, who McClure met on a bus and asked if Turner wanted to join his band at the time Judan Suki. Together the two have co-written songs including He Said He Loved Me, The Machine (both feature on The State Of Things) and Old Yellow Bricks. McClure cites his key influences as being Bob Marley, Oasis and John Cooper Clarke. One of his favourite books is Nineteen Eighty-Four, a novel by George Orwell and inspiration for the name of his former band 1984. McClure was part of a collective that set up "Instigate Debate" in August 2008. He shared a flat with frontman of Arctic Monkeys, Alex Turner. McClure is set to marry Reverend and the Makers band mate Laura Manuel in August 2009.
