About Me

When two-thirds of Raleigh called it quits last year, most people figured that the Denver indie-rock outfit was done for. However, primary front man David Crowe decided to reboot the project by acquiring all new members for Raleigh 2.0.
The new lineup was reportedly in fine form at their debut, which is good news because few other bands can channel their impressive record collection-old Modest Mouse, Pavement, Archers of Loaf-into music this passionate, witty, and engaging.
