Crash Encore is a great band. I describe them as local but not. That is an added compliment because they are local but sound like they could be from somewhere else, having talent that goes beyond. With that said, Crash Encore are nominated for Best New Artist and you can vote for them on the San Diego Music Awards website: http://www.sandiegomusicawards.com/. The voting polls close on September 5th, so if you want to vote for them or any other nominated band, do it now.
I saw them for the first time at The Whistle Stop. They impressed me, so I watched the whole set – haven’t done that in a while. Crash Encore is not only great to listen to but fun to watch. They dress sharp and have a good energy. The band members Jon Bishop, Bryan Stratman, TJ Royer, Christian Cummings and Jason Harding are all very nice. They enjoy playing for the sake of music and appreciate the listeners. Their new album Volume 1 is now available on the Crash Encore website.
Crash Encore will be performing with Bedford Grove on Friday, August 17 at The Shaker Room located on 528 F Street. Show starts at 9p, 21+
