Artist description
Formed in mid-1999, Krenshaw creates a groove-laden blend of heavy alternative music with a forceful yet dynamic melody and power. Combining thunderous downbeats, distorted bass, sledgehammer guitars and hypnotic vocals, Krenshaw creates a roar that reverberates inside the head long after the band leaves the stage. With a veteran crew of musicians in tow, Krenshaw has put together a soundscape emoting and transcending a deep feeling of painful honesty to its audience.
"It's all about creating a headspace and an attitude. That is why we do this, to release and share that pain and energy with others," said Kelly D., Krenshaw vocalist.
Since the band's formation, Krenshaw has received a hearty response at its shows, and has gained an ever growing loyal following. Bay Area media loves Krenshaw, showering the band with a deluge of positive press and reviews of its musical endeavors.
With the release of its first EP, "Lazy i" (2001 Thunder Steak Records), the band is poised to jump to the next level of success. Krenshaw is determined to put its own scar on the already thrashed face of heavy rock.
