Crash Kings

Another New Video! – Crash Kings

Posted on by Amanda

The last several months have been chock full of my favorite bands releasing new music videos. This week, Crash Kings take on their single “Mountain Man”, a song that was on my best of ’09 mix. This LA based band has been touring around the country (most recently with Jet) and this particular song has been hitting up the airwaves around the nation. If you get the opportunity, please go see this guitar-less rock trio live. My fingers are perpetually crossed that they will play more hometown shows, but they are fast becoming one of those LA bands that are always on the road.

you’ll have to go here to see it:http://www.vevo.com/watch/Crash-Kings/Mountain-Man/USUV71000024

Go here for tour dates (they are at The Note in West Chester April 15th!!)

Listen and Love!

Countdown to Epicenter Twenty Ten: 6 days!

Posted on by Kristen

As I mentioned yesterday, next weekend is Epicenter Twenty Ten. I was thrilled looking at the line-up to see one of my favorite LA bands, Crash Kings. These guys have been blowing up since their days of playing The Viper Room and anyone who has seen them or heard their music could probably tell you why.
For a taste, here’s their most recent music video:
