Dead Kennedys Lose Another Singer

Jeff Penalty, the third lead singer of Dead Kennedys, has quit due to the band recruiting a new singer without his knowledge. Penalty comments:

“It’s likely that, if asked, the band will attribute my departure to scheduling conflicts brought about by my documentary work, but in reality it’s a tediously long story involving personality conflicts, creative differences, arguments about splitting money equally, arguments about how the band should be run, arguments about the wisdom of hiring a band manager whose other star client was a Christian folk artist, arguments about whether we should or shouldn’t go on MTV, and arguments about many other wretched things.”

    What christian folk artist is he referring to?
    Sounds like the manager has a diverse roster.
