They play acoustic folk music with punk rock tempos, and occasionally mix in hip-hop lyrics. They like impromptu outdoor gigs at places like bus stations, the New England Aquarium, various doughnut shops, or maybe even your friendly local T stop. They are named after a previous drummer, but they currently have no drummer, and don’t plan on getting one. Go ahead, try and classify the Crumb Sullivans. - Jay N. Miller-

I first discovered The Crumb Sullivans as I was leaving a night of local boxing at the Union Hall in Boston. They were playing music outside the exit door .Two young men, a guitar, and a mandolin. The energy and the emotion they were pouring into the set caught my attention, the fact that the fueled up fight crowd paid little attention, blew my mind. My 10 year old was tugging on my arm to leave, but I couldn't.
I watched for 3 or 4 songs then politely asked if they had a CD I could buy. "Nope", the guitarist answered. "Any upcoming shows?" I asked. "You're at one." he quickly replied. He then asked me if I would like to sign up for their email list. I did. In the months following, I received many emails telling me where I could find them. Outside the Dunkin Donuts in Mattapan, a couple all ages basement shows, the New England Aquarium T stop, and so on. I went when I could.
We developed a friendship of sorts. They still didn't have a CD to offer, so I approached the boys about maybe recording something with them. We did. I always thought they sounded like something Alan Lomax would be interested in if he was still around and wandering the streets of Boston, looking for the next addition to his Library Of Congress recordings. It just sounded right the way it was. So that's how we recorded it.
The Quincy Quarry Recordings Volume 1, is a 4 song EP, recorded in one take, outdoors, on a Sony 8mm Handycam. Listen close and you can hear the crickets. I hope you find in the boys the same thing I did and will help me spread the word about The Crumb Sullivans. I thank you, and The Crumb Sullivans thank you.
Sincerely,
The Baby Shaker

Hello, it's that time of the month again when we add more lovely music to our site. This month's happy foursome are The Barker Band in wistful mode, the summer of love-ish Old Californio, the anything but summer love-ish Christopher Rees and, wait for it..."Travelling Salesman's Young Wife Home Alone On Christmas In Montpelier, VT" from Casiotone For The Painfully Alone, which evenr if it was rubbish (and it's not) just had to be included for the names alone.
Itâs that time of the month and our site has four new tracks up for your listening enjoyment.
This monthâs box of delights include the swaggering groove of Blackie & The Rodeo Kings, the insanely catchy folk-pop of Antje Duvekot, the languid Great Lake Swimmers and, a little belatedly but better late than never, The Young Republic.
A particularly strong month, even if we do say so ourselves. Check them out, you won't regret it.
Hey it was great seeing you guys play last month! It's been too long.
Also, I love the Block Island hotel key! Block Island was a blast the time we were there together. Has it been just as great the other time(s) you were there? Playing again this year?
Fucking Pier 17 yeah aiight! Man, Slippery's dance moves made me uncomfortable a little bit. But once he started giggling I was okay. You sounded incredible. wooo hooo!
