b'RockerMike and Rob Presents: Dan Palmer from The Crushtones.\\n\\nThe Crushtones hail from Saginaw, MI. What started in 2012 as a reason to hang out in the basement to sit around and play our instruments and drink a few beers slowly morphed into a more serious music project. The band consists of Dan Palmer, who sings and plays guitar, and writes the lyrics. Keith Weber plays guitar, helps come up with the musical ideas, and occasionally sings backup vocals when his arm is twisted really hard. Tom Towns also plays guitar and provides extra texture to our sound. Stephen Hughey plays the bass, sings, and helps with song writing. Jake Nowosad plays the drums and helps keep everything nice and tight.\\nThe Crushtones\' vision is a direct result of Dan\'s love of \'60s garage rock and power pop. The whole idea is to make sure the songs are melodic and catchy, while still maintaining a bit of an edge. The guitars are loud, but never overpowering. Fuzz tones are preferable to nice clean guitar sounds, even though the clean sounds still seem to show up from time to time. Lyrically, the songs are usually cynical, yet being very memorable at the same time.\\nThe Crushtones released their first self-titled full-length CD in May 2015. It featured a set of catchy guitar-based rock songs reminiscent of an assortment of late-60s and early-70s bands like The Kinks and The Who, but still retained their own uniqueness. After several years, and a few lineup changes, they finally released a new EP entitled "Not No More in January 2021. Sounding more powerful, the songs are still full of hooks and stick in your head for days. \\n \\nAs soon as the pandemic has settled down, The Crushtones can\'t wait to finally hit the stage again.
