White Horse Live at The Whiskey A GoGo


When I think of Memphis Crawl, I think of the bands intense soulful energy. This energy is captured and broadcasted wide spread among their music with every song that they play. The best example of that is with their original "White Horse". Memphis Crawl was able to perform live at one of the most famous and iconic venues of all time back in 2009, The Whiskey A GoGo. Here's a video of the band performing "White Horse" at that show. Hopefully you'll enjoy this as much as I did.

Review of Last Night's WRCN's Performance

Around 7:55pm last night I went on to WRCN.com anxiously awaiting Memphis Crawl's live performance. When 8pm finally rolled around, which seemed like forever, the disc jockey came on to introduce the band by saying they were setting up and proceeded to play some random classic blues. Once it got to 8:10 and my Memphis Crawl withdrawal was at its peak, a brief introduction was given by the one and only Matty O'Brien. After a few words, songs from their EP Falling Down Against The Sun were played.

Once "Wintertime", my personal favorite song from the ep, was over and a brief sound check, Memphis Crawl rushed right into their live performance starting off with "Wildflower Annie". Playing like it was their last chance to share their souls with the masses. Matty's vocals rang true to his usual gut busting ear blasting sound. Guitarist Bryan Stevens, and Bassist Mad Friek were at war with each other battling between epic riff to epic riff while drummer extraordinaire, Mike Vincenti wailed away repeatedly on his drum kit unaware of the repercussions to the listeners ears.

From their epic original "Whitehorse" to their flawless cover of The Beatles classic "Don't Let Me Down" it was a live performance for the books. Also mentioned on the show were upcoming performances for Oct/Nov, including their return to Brickhouse Brewery in Patchogue, plans for their east coast winter tour, as well as their hopes for recording a full length album shortly after the new year. All in all it was a night to remember!

Memphis Crawl Live at The Trash Bar!!!!

TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT!!! If you're looking for something to do, and you missed Memphis Crawl at The Velvet Lounge, which was epic beyond all reasoning, then head on down to the Trash Bar in Brooklyn tonight at 8pm.

It's been nearly three weeks since Memphis Crawl's last live performance and my ears are still ringing! They are by far the greatest live show to see right now as far as local bands go. You're not just listening to live music, every show is interactive between the band and the audience. Whether Matty O'Brien is throwing t-shirts at the crowd, or tossing pieces of his tambourine, which I proudly caught last show, it is an all out audio blitz.

For only $7 you're getting in to see not just Memphis Crawl, but three other bands as well. There will also be food and drink specials. Now we need to really step for The Crawl tonight, because if we can get 30+ people there, Trash Bar has promised to give Memphis Crawl the coveted weekend slot next time, so lets not disappoint and PACK THE FREAKIN' HOUSE TONIGHT!!!

To Matty and the rest of the crew, break 'em tonight and MELT SOME FACES!!!
