David Ryder Prangley first met Will Crewdson in 1994 after moving from Dinas Powys in SouthWales to London in search of musicians to bring to life an imaginary band called RACHEL
STAMP.
Instantly hitting it off over a shared love of artists such as Redd Kross, The Nymphs, Prince and
Warren Zevon and filmmakers such as Lindsay Anderson, Russ Mayer and Kathryn Bigelow, the
duo quickly hit the UK music scene (joined by synth player Shaheena Dax and drummer Robin
Guy) with their unique and colourful brand of androgynous Glam Punk, releasing the albums
HYMNS FOR STRANGE CHILDREN, STAMPAX and OCEANS OF VENUS and securing a following
that would see them become the first unsigned band to sell out London’s legendary Astoria
Theatre.
In 2024 Will and David decided to take things back to their roots and started performing stripped
down versions of RACHEL STAMP’s varied catalogue as a duo with David on vocals and acoustic
guitar and Will on electric guitar and backing vocals. Their first show quickly sold out leading to
more UK dates are being added. The gigs are all unique, with set lists changing and stories about
the songs being told.
Be prepared for an intimate evening with one of the UK’s most individual and cherished bands.
