Line 8:
He started his musical career in the early eighties when he was a part of the secular Charlie Peacock Group. The group released one album during this period, ''No Magazines'' (1981). In 1982, Peacock converted to Christianity after a bout with alcoholism and during this time was a founding member of the new wave band Vector.
 
In 1984, Peacock released his debut acoustic-pop album ''Lie Down in the Grass,'' to much critical acclaim. He continued his musical career throughout [[The Eighties]] and released a [[New Wave (Music)|New Wave]] [[Self-titledTitled Album]] through Island Records. Peacock released three albums independently in the late 80's: the West Coast Diaries Volumes One, Two and Three, which consisted of recorded material from his touring band and solo projects.
 
Peacock released gospel/soul albums in the early 90's, which included grammy-nominated ''The Secret of Time'' (1990) and ''Love Life.'' (1992) Love Life was a controversial album due to it mixing [[Intercourse Withwith You]] and [["God Is Love" Songs]], blurring the line between sexual and spiritual love. It also contained Peacock's most well-known song, "In The Light," later [[Covered Up]] by dcTalk.
 
In the mid-nineties, Peacock [[Genre Shift|genre shifted]] again towards alternative and folk rock. He released ''Everything That's On My Mind'' (1994) and ''Strangelanguage'' (1996), the latter of which which blended several musical styles including jazz, alternative rock, pop, electronica, and world music.
