[crave]: are a 3-piece rock outfit who take their music seriously. Together since mid-2004, this time has seen them record a 4-track ep; storm the famed ICC studios in Eastbourne to record their debut album carve (Pssst in just 6 days!); gig relentlessly up and down Ireland; perform various on-air acoustic sessions and are currently working on material for album ..2!!! Its been a crazy ride for the lads, who won Sonya Macs 2005 Locally Grown competition gaining valuable airtime on N.Irelands biggest station Cool FM with their rock anthem Sorry. Crave have been circuiting Irelands premier live music venues including the Limelight and Spring and Airbrake as part of national festivals such as BelFest 2005, and in April 2006 year they rocked their way into the hugely popular Battle of the Bands final in Basement Jacks, and reached the all Ireland Final of the Global Battle of the Bands in Belfasts Empire. Theyve played Irelands finest Christian music festivals; Summer Madness three times and the Ignite Festival three times, Tara Music Festival and Greenbelt 2006; performed live on sky TV and are now set to record their second album in April 2007! Need we ask are [crave]: a band to catch live?? Well, dont take it from us, heres what critics say about the band!!! “‘Carve’ is an accurately chiselled piece of modern rock with exemplary production and musicianship that’s tighter than Rick Waller’s Speedos – and definitely more alluring!” Adam Harrold (Rock Something) Guitars turned up to eleven, this band combine high-energy rock with strong melodies and passionate heartfelt honest lyrics.. definitely one to watch in 2006! Premier Music The pinnacles of multi layered rock excellence.. a band we are going to be hearing much more of. Tony Cummings (Cross Rhythms) They've got power in their music like Creed and Foo Fighters but have something new to bring to the table which rocks!!" Carl Kinsman (Cool 97.4FM) Crave Sound: With strong vocal melodies, gripping guitars and solid drums, we hope to present our audience with raw and powerful songs, whilst delivering thoughtful insight to our struggles and search for purpose in life. Crave Musical Influences: These range from the Foo Fighters, Switchfoot, and Hundred Reasons to Keane and Coldplay! The result is a sound cocktail with hints of Blink 182, Feeder and Creed. Crave .. Through our melodies and lyrics we aim to point listeners towards the purpose driven life found in Jesus Christ.
