MARSHALL CRENSHAW & THE BOTTLE ROCKETS (2 Top 40's Sensation)

MARSHALL CRENSHAW is best known for his song "Someday, Someway", a Top 40 hit in 1982 and is a noted guitarist who uses offbeat chord progressions and concise solos. His music is rooted in classic soul music, British Invasion songcraft, Burt Bacharach and Buddy Holly, whom Crenshaw was often compared to early in his career. So much so that he portrayed him in the 1987 film 'La Bamba'. When THE BOTTLE ROCKETS hit the scene in the mid ‘90s, the world wasn’t quite sure what to do with them. With punk-rock pedigrees and arena-rock energy; tougher-than-Springsteen storytelling; and romantic hearts sewn bare on their denim sleeves, The Bottle Rockets confounded musical generalities as they laid waste to clubs across the Midwest and then, soon enough, the nation. www.MarshallCrenshaw.com www.BottleRocketsMusic.com
