The Prayer Chain
The Prayer Chain was a 1990s Christian alternative rock band. The band has been called "the epitome of the Christian underground". The Prayer Chain was known for producing moody, angst-ridden music which was, in turn, the result of creative differences within the band and with their record label. History The Prayer Chain formed in February 1990 when Campuzano & Prickett's band, Laughing Boy, broke up at the same time as Taber's band, Tapestry, broke up. Campuzano knew Taber through a Bible study group. Originally, Taber both sang and played drums, though drum machines were also used. The band auditioned Everett to play drums later that year after meeting at a Prayer Chain show in California. Their first album, ''The Neverland Sessions'' was recorded with Steve Hindalong at Neverland Studios and was released independently. After signing to Reunion Records they put out the ''Whirlpool EP'' and started touring, while focusing on their first album, ''Shawl'', released in 1993. I ...
