Now you know by now I like to promote a bit of local produce, with the Westcountry scene looking particularly fruitful at current, here’s the exciting sound of Cornish band Crowns.
Self-styled punk-folk, debut single ‘Kissing Gates’ mixes just that – a jig with an edge sharper than freshly pressed cider (NB don’t worry that’s the only Cornish-based pun I’ll be using in this piece) a shanty for the modern day fisherman or in this case, more likely, the crowd surfer.

Sounding like nothing else out there at the moment, it seems most fitting that they’ve been added as the support act for The King Blues next month – an equally enjoyable band especially live, anyone attending these gigs is in for a double treat.
High energy with one of those irresistible hook and drum-beat combos, inject a bit of Cornish sunshine into the dreary October days drawing in.

Raise your glasses, kick your legs and look forward to the EP coming up in the New Year. Crowns hereby stand at the top of my ‘bands I want to see live’ list. In Cornish we’d say peidgy ry thebm mouy – please give me more!
‘Kissing Gates’ the single is out on November 14 / @crownsband
