Crossley Band |
ie marketing reports: The Adam Crossley Band
led by lead vocalist, pianist and songwriter, Adam Crossley!
Now some of you may be unfamiliar with
the group, but the band's brand of prolific rock music will not be kept
a secret for long. Comparisons have already been made to Coldplay, Sting,
and Toad the Wet Sprocket, but the group truly has a distinct sound all
to their own.
Since the formation of the band in 2001,
which includes members Casey Kinnan (drums), Jason Howes (keys/backing
vocals), Rick Tuason (bass/backing vocals) and Ryan Herr (guitar), they
have been on the road with their tight and energy filled live show and
have opened for artists such as John Mayer, Sponge, Joe Cocker, Steve Winwood
and Blues Traveler causing quite a stir throughout the US and Canada.
Check out the video for the band's single,
"Train Goes" at the full story link.- Click
