John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

Crowsdell

Crowsdell was an American indie-pop band from Jacksonville, Florida. The members included Shannon Wright (guitar and vocals), Paul Howell (bass), and Laurie Anne Wall (drums). They released singles on two different labels before signing with Big Cat in 1994. They recorded their first full-length CD, Dreamette, with Stephen Malkmus of Pavement. After Big Cat merged with a larger record label, their second full-length CD was dropped before ever hitting the shelves. The band subsequently broke up and Shannon Wright went on to produce numerous solo albums.

Links to Peel[]

Peel seemed to have discovered the band in late 1993, according to available tracklistings on this site. Impressed by their material, he invited the group to do a session for his show in 1995, where they performed four tracks. Peel kept interest in Shannon Wright's solo material by playing some of her music on his radio shows after the group split up.
