The Cruz & The Dukes of Harlem

“Sparks flew from Harlem when the boy-brothers walked in, handsome and hot.
It smelled like sweat, tobacco, whisky and beer.”
THE CRUZ & THE DUKES OF HARLEM!

The Cruz & The Dukes of Harlem aren’t just another band—they are a brotherhood…
Born in the shadows of Rock ’n Roll’s past but built for the future. They know it isn’t just a genre—
it’s a way of life. It’s a declaration of freedom, a rebellion against everything ordinary and mundane, a
manifesto for the disillusioned, the dreamers, and those who’ve sworn never to grow up.

Drawing power from the blue-collar grit of Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, the sharp wit of
Elvis Costello, and the grand theatricality of Meat Loaf & Jim Steinman, their sound is both a
homage to the legends and a bold statement of their own identity.
They masterfully blend energy with introspection, weaving tales of sweet love and rebellion with
streetwise tenderness and defiance into songs that resonate with timeless authenticity.
Their performances are dynamic and unpredictable, filled with moments of virtuosity while honoring
the greats and putting their authentic stamp on music today.

At their live shows, you’ll be swept up in a tidal wave of emotion—dancing, singing, and feeling the
pulse of youth and wildness surging through you. These lads are on a mission to bring Rock ’n Roll
music back to the forefront—not for fleeting fame, but to create a lasting impact that ignites the spirit
of Rock ’n Roll in a new generation.

It’s a revival, a revolution, and a call to arms for those who believe that music remains a profound art
form, a powerful force for freedom, and a way to live life with passion and purpose.
