Terri Crawford

Terri Crawford, formerly billed as Terry Crawford, is a Canadian musician, most noted as a two-time Juno Award nominee for Most Promising Female Vocalist at the Juno Awards of 1982 and the Juno Awards of 1983.

Background Originally from Montreal, Quebec, she moved with her family at age 12 to Winnipeg, Manitoba, where she met her husband and musical collaborator Rick Johnson in high school. They formed the Terry Crawford Band, with Crawford on vocals and Johnson on guitar, in 1971 before marrying in 1975. which featured the singles "I'll Be Back" and "First Step". and they recorded and toured behind several albums of children's music as Terri & Rick; this activity in turn led Johnson into politics, beginning on the local school board and culminating in his election to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario in 2009.

In 1989 songwriters Fred Mollin and Stan Meissner hired her to sing on the song "Broken Dream" which was used in the Vancouver based horror film Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. The song was not released for 32 years, having only appeared in the film as one of the tracks actress Saffron Henderson's character "J.J." jams along to on her electric guitar, the other being an instrumental. Despite never being released the song remained popular among Friday the 13th fans. Meissner responded to a fan query where he claimed that no complete versions of the songs were made as they were never intended for release outside the film. However, in 2021, the song was included on La-La-Land Records’ release of the film’s soundtrack which revealed a previously unheard chorus and lead guitar parts.

In 2011, she released Life Lines.
