  • Bio

    Crimson are a four piece alternative rock band hailing from County Westmeath, Ireland. After many years of paying tribute to their heroes as a covers group, Crimson left the covers circuit and began writing their own material. Supporting many bands especially at their local venue The Stables in Mullingar the guys have crafted their Classic Rock sound to what it is today, a fresh take on the genre, Crimson's fan base is rapidly growing throughout the country. Crimson have recently launched their debut album "Untamed/Underground/Unwell" which is available in selected E2, Eason and Golden Discs stores and is also available on iTunes ........................................................................................................................>>> "It's not often that a band will surprise me. Its a rarity when I don't truly enjoy myself at a gig, the energy of live music is always enough to turn anyone's bad mood around. Last Friday however, when midlands-based band Crimson played an A.M.P. sponsored gig in Bar Metro, I was actually stunned. Firstly, by the fact that I had never heard or even heard of this band before, and secondly, by the comfort of the lead singer behind the mic. Fronting a band is hard enough as it is (believe me, I know…), but it gets even harder when the singer is playing a guitar on top of it. Fergal O'Rourke on the other hand, lead singer and rhythm guitarist for Crimson, plays with such a degree of comfort and relaxation behind the mic, it was close to impossible not to be impressed. Having played around Ireland for over a decade, they are now coming close to releasing their debut album. Look out for their next gig, you won't be disappointed."
