Crills Wilson LP Release Party at KFN May 19


Crills Wilson merges gritty country folk with rockabilly tinged punk, and has just the right ingredients to get you off your ass and stomping in a good old-fashioned hootenanny. After four years of honing his skill, the artist is all set to release his debut LP, Solid Gold. The album is a 10 song homage to country great Steve Earle. It was mixed and mastered by Todd Mecaughey, who also produced Cheers Elephant’s Man is Nature. Wilson and his backing band that features members of Smoker and the Rollers, The Danger O’s, and more are getting ready to celebrate their release tonight at Kung Fu Necktie. They’ll be joined by the Brothers Murphy of Penrose who are gearing up for their upcoming NO EXCUSES Summer Concert Series at Danger Danger Gallery. Also on tap will be the surf-pop blended gypsy folk of Conversations With Enemies. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $8, 21+ – Bill McThrill
