Petty Crux

In the last year, the members of Petty Crux have found each other on Craigslist, made L.A. their hometown, recorded a 4-track E.P. in Santa Fe, dusted off the quarter-inch tape decks at Capitol Records, and rocked the House of Blues on Sunset. But that's just the amp buzz start to what they call a much overdue "evolution of rock n' roll". Armed with a clash of influences ranging throughout the decades - The Beatles to Queen, Journey to Nirvana, Radiohead to The Black Keys - they specialize in a sound that's familiar, but fresh.
