About Me

[crave]: are an edgy 3-piece modern rock outfit that take their music seriously. Together since mid-2004, this time has seen them record a 4-track ep; storm the famed ICC studios in Eastbourne to record their debut album carve (Pssst in just 6 days!); gig relentlessly up and down Ireland; perform various on-air acoustic sessions and are about to release their much anticipated second album entitled 'Waiting Games'Its been a crazy ride for the lads, who won Sonya Macs Locally Grown competition gaining valuable airtime on N.Irelands biggest station Cool FM with their rock anthem 'Sorry'. Crave have been circuiting Irelands premier live music venues including the Limelight and Spring and Airbrake as part of national festivals, and have rocked their way into the hugely popular Battle of the Bands final in Basement Jacks, and reached the all Ireland Final of the Global Battle of the Bands in Belfasts Empire. They've played Irelands finest Christian music festivals; Summer Madness three times and the Ignite Festival three times, Tara Music Festival and Greenbelt 2006 and 2007; performed live on sky TV. With numerous live radio recordings, need we ask are [crave]: a band to catch live?? Well, dont take it from the crave team, heres what critics say about the band!!!Carve is an accurately chiselled piece of modern rock with exemplary production and musicianship that is tighter than Rick Wallers Speedos and definitely more alluring! Adam Harrold (Rock Something)Guitars turned up to eleven, this band combine high-energy rock with strong melodies and passionate heartfelt honest lyrics.. definitely one to watch in 2006! (Premier Music)The pinnacles of multi layered rock excellence.. a band we are going to be hearing much more of. Tony Cummings (Cross Rhythms)They've got power in their music like Creed and Foo Fighters but have something new to bring to the table which rocks!!" Carl Kinsman (Cool 97.4FM)Through their melodies and lyrics [crave]: aim to point listeners towards the purpose driven life found in Jesus Christ.Check 'em out!!And please vote for us as a supergroup!
