Links to Peel[]
Peel mentioned on his 28 January 1999 show how a bunch of lads outside the BBC studio handed him a CD earlier that week. He listened it and said it was a really good and was from a band called Senseless Prayer. He proceeded to play it on the show and said he hoped that they’re listening and gave out their phone number, so fans could contact them and encourage them. As a result, Senseless Prayer ended up doing a Peel session, which was broadcast on 04 August 1999. Despite the support from Peel, the band did not get any commercial success.
