Listening to Left Lane Cruiser is like sipping a great whiskey or a gritty and electrifying storm.
It is what Left Lane Cruiser sound like to me. Always ready to hit the stage – the legendary Left Lane Cruiser deliver and unleash their sonic fury upon their fervent fans every-time.
An explosion of sound and energy occur when the the stage lights blazed to life and reveal two figures with their instruments.
Freddy J IV, the fearless frontman with his battered guitar, a fun-devilish grin stretching across his weathered face. His raspy, beer-soaked voice seared through the air like molten lava, commanding the audience’s attention as if possessed by the spirits of blues legends past.
Beside him, good friend Brenn Beck, pounding the pots and pans with primal intensity, his furious hillbilly rhythms reverb through the venues like a thunderstorm.
This is how I see Left Lane Cruiser
Left Lane Cruiser’s raw, unapologetic style is a blend of blues, rock ‘n’ roll, and punk attitude that ignited an inferno in the hearts of all who hear it. The frenetic energy of the music, make it impossible for anyone to stand still.
Freedy J guitar solos screamed and wailed like tortured spirits, filling rooms with a haunting yet euphoric melody. The air always crackle with electricity, and the pounding of the Brenn’s drums reverberated through every fiber of the audience’s souls feeling like the band had tapped into something primal and ancient, something that had been buried deep within.
I grew up in a salvage yard outside of Chicago, IL. When I was 5 I thought the whole outside world was a Sanford and Son episode. I think I was the first kid in my school to know what curb feelers were. We use to eat loose meat BBQ sandwiches down at Duray grocery for 10 cents a piece. As kids we use to use gas tanks as boats when the flood came up. My first dog was a Dalmatian named Nutless (my dad named him). One time a water moccasin ate a toad in our driveway and my buddy ran it over with his bike and the toad popped back out. One time a neighbor down the street built an official WWF wrestling ring in his front yard. I remember the guy across the street shaking Mulberries into a blanket to make wine. When I listen to Left Lane Cruiser these are the things I think about. Love you guys, hope to see you soon.
