The Peckerheads evolved from several other Morgantown area bands. Generally speaking, Jawn and Evan came together in early 1999 to start a band - 8 months later, the final product was The Peckerheads. They've played all over the area and they released their debut album on May 21st, 2000. They aren't going to go away. |

Shaulis of the Dominion Post |
