Powder were a Britpop band who existed between 1994 and 1996 and released three singles on Parkway Records.
They were fronted by Pearl Lowe, with songwriters Mark Thomas on guitar and Tim McTighe on bass and James Walden on drums.
[1] Signed in late 1994 by music public relations agents John Best and Phill Savidge, they were the first band on the label.
[2] After the release of their third and last single, "Deep Fried", in November 1995, Powder stopped touring as Lowe was pregnant.
By the time she was ready to tour again the band was finished, having announced their split in spring 1996, citing musical differences between Lowe and Thomas.
