Long Island, NY (May, 2016) — When you think of some of the most prolific southern blues rockers in music history, bands that actually grew up in the south usually come to mind–Lynyrd Skynyrd perhaps, or maybe the Allman Brothers–but New York’s Memphis Crawl seem to flip that paradigm on its head as a Northern rock outfit with the same southern charm! And with a slew of upcoming summer gigs including Sunday, July 17th at The Great South Bay Music Festival! (More Upcoming Dates Below)

Bio:
“Bluesy”,”Ballsy”,”Soulful” and “Convention Defying”….These are some of Words that Have Been Used to Describe Memphis Crawl. The Crawl was Formed in 2004 by Charismatic Frontman Matty O’Brien on The Blue-Collar Streets of New York City….The Son of a Counter Culture Mother From Brooklyn and A Country-Blues Bred Outlaw Daddy From The South, Matty was Raised on a Strict Diet of Rock n Roll and Delta Blues and even as a Small Child it was Clear that this “Old Soul”… Was a Natural Performer….Soon after putting the Group Together Matty Found some Of the Heaviest Cats Around…..Guitarist Stevens, Bassist Slim Earl and Percussionist Michael Powder… From Their First Jam Session Together it was Obvious That Their collective Energy and Chemistry was Truly Something Special and a Once in a Lifetime gift.This Four Piece PowerHouse has Toured all over the U.S. from NYC to Los Angeles and parts of Europe….Their Fanbase Known as “The CrawlDogs” have Become a Huge Funky Family… Kind of a Cross Between a Counter Culture Commune and a Traveling Circus.If You Get a Chance to see the band Live…you will quickly find out why their motto is “play like its your last night on Earth!!’.
