Biography

Comprised of singer Christopher Sprull, guitarists Jason Marks and Dave Dicke, bassist Alan Callahan and drummer Scott MacConnell, Far Too Jones emerged from Raleigh, North Carolina, quickly becoming one of the Southeast region's most popular touring bands. A year after issuing their self-titled debut CD in mid-1995, they released Crawling Out from Under; a follow-up EP, Plastic Hero, yielded the local hit "Falling Back Down," the success of which resulted in a deal with the Mammoth label. Picture Postcard Walls, Far Too Jones' Mammoth debut, appeared in 1998. Shame and Her Sister was issued two years later. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
