Shamelessly plugging a gig from an awesome band.

The Crookes: Joiners, April 3rd 2011
With debut album ‘Chasing After Ghosts’ out in March, The Crookes (so named after the Sheffield estate they hail from) have the world at their feet. Receiving plentiful comparisons to The Smiths, lead singer George Waite does indeed have a hint of Morrissey about him. Championed by radio greats like Steve Lamacq, who, in 2010, named them as his ‘favourite band of the year’, The Crookes will surely be a feature of the long hot summer ahead, with their melodic tunage and catchy lyrics becoming the uplifting soundtrack to hazy days and boozy nights.
