Shannon Wright
Wright moved from New York City to Chapel Hill, NC after her first band Crowsdell called it quits. While in Chapel Hill, Wright started experimenting and writing solo songs with a borrowed four-track recorder. Wright, known for her "do-it-yourself punk aesthetic", received much encouragement from friends to continue making records, even though she had considered quitting. So, when a friend gave one of her four-track recording to someone at Touch and Go/Quarterstick Records, and they offered to release her first solo record, she reconsidered her disposal of all things musical.
