Crazy Kind of Love out now!

About Me


“The fusion of all our backgrounds form one sound It is all our own. It is Winslow.” Said Front man Maurice Martin.
That fusion is soul/rock. An old school passion with new school pop sensibility.
Bursting through generation barriers and worn out trends -Winslow’s music is timeless. Their musical journey has already led them to sharing the stage with such high profile acts as OAR, GZA of Wu-Tang Clan, MTV’s DJ Scribble and most recently to taking home the Molson Battle of the Bands title.

Winslow’s trademark sound has already caught on with industry veterans such as Gene Shelton formerly of Motown Records (Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye) and Gary Kirves of Buddy Lee Attractions in Nashville.
Studied musicianship combined with passion propels this live experience. It is energy. It is driven. It is an outpour of raw emotion that keeps crowds coming back for more.
“There are times energy is in form of passion and angst and others it’s in the form of dancing and solos. There is always a genuine energy that lets everyone fully grasp and experience the story we are telling.” Explained Martin.
An asset to Ohio based FTF Records; Winslow recently released their much-anticipated first full-length album with the likes of legendary keyboardist Bernie Worrell (Parliament/Funkadelic and The Talking Heads). Hailing their Crazy Kind of Love across the Midwest and beyond, in less than two years Winslow is opening eyes as they change the music landscape in every region they move through - laying it on thick to bring it to a city near you.

 "It has a nice soul sound and a good dance beat. It's much better than all the other new music you hear today."
Art Greenberg, former Youngstown WFMJ-TV

“Definitely a group to put on your watch list. In this day and age of sameness in music, [Winslow] is poised to break out of the pack.”
Phil Levine, Fitchburg Massachusetts On-Air Personality

“The band’s new album, "Crazy Kind of Love," features 10 songs of great writing and playing by a band that has taken its time to learn to create something new, something different that will have people talking once the band gets some well-deserved publicity for their album that does more than just help revitalize the soul genre, it kicks it to the next level.”
Matheson of Cleveland's Exciting City Magazine

"I’m definitely impressed. This is talent.”
Chuck Collins, WAKR Program Director

"...one of the most vivacious, infectious, and capturing bands that I've come across in a long time. This six piece group is full of groovy licks and jazzy instrumentals, back by talented musicians, each every one of them. Think Dave Matthews Band with more soul, and that's [Winslow]."
