@CRASH MANSION
I missed you at the Groove and the CRASH was my first time! I was blessed to have had a taste of your show at the 5 Spot in Brooklyn. Let me say you took me on a ride that I will not soon forget. Your vocal acrobats and hurdles over decades of music genre took me and the rest of your audience to new heights. And best of all you sang country…and man after my own heart. I thought I was the last person to love country music in NY until I saw and entire room sing along with you as you reinvented the country Wheel! What don’t you sing?
LISTEN If you did not know about this MAN & this band "you should". Living personification of all that is RIGHT in music.
