American singer Galen Crew will perform at Brown Sugar Jar Monday night.
Crew is a producer and songwriter from Nashville, Tennessee. He has released six albums to date. His song “Sleepyhead,” co-written with legendary songwriter Roger Cook, has garnered tens of millions of listens. His songs have been featured on radio stations all over the world as well as the ABC show “Good Morning America.”
Meanwhile, Australian band Flyying Colours will play a psych-shoegaze gig Wednesday. With a sound heavily influenced by the English shoegaze bands of the early ’90s (My Bloody Valentine, Ride etc.), they’ve been able to slot nicely into Melbourne’s burgeoning shoegaze scene. Not only has it offered Flyying Colours the opportunity to connect with an established crowd, but it’s also allowed them to participate in what is a thriving community of like-minded artists. The band’s commitment to excellence is carried through to their live show. Often, they collaborate with Tom Russell of Astral Projections to create a visual backdrop to their performances.
The astonishing reaction to their mesmerizing live shows in Melbourne was followed up with the release of their debut self-titled EP in 2014. It received rave reviews, stacks of indie radio support and online attention in Australia but it was the international blogosphere that really got behind them, posting their psychedelic film clips on sites the world over. It didn’t take long for the international music industry to come knocking and five months later the EP was released in Europe through Club ac30 and in the U.S. through Shelflife, being played regularly on BBC, Amazing radio and XFM and featured on international blogs like clashmagazine online.
