Influenced by legends like X, The Go-Go's, The Distillers, and The Rolling Stones, Starcrawler brings a fresh and rebellious energy to the music scene. Their latest single, 'Roadkill,' is a testament to their raw talent and unwavering commitment to their craft. As they continue to tour and release new music, Starcrawler is poised to dominate the rock world.
Fan reviews:Starcrawler shared the stage with Boris, A Place to Bury Strangers, YHWH Nailgun, Agriculture, and Porcelain at the Empire Control Room & Garage. They continue across the United States and Australia with the last stop at the Casbah in San Diego, California on December 31, 2024.
Starcrawler was amazing! Starcrawler was rocking entire evening. So much energy. Love this band. They played excellent show.
Not many young bands are playing rock and roll and fewer still are listening to it. So when a band with the chops and swagger of Starcrawler comes around they are bound to draw out all the ancient rock vampires. I hope the band doesn't mind. It's just a sign that they have something special going on. Thanks guys for a great show. Love ya Arrow!
Starcrawler was awesome! Lots of energy, band was tight, these folks are clearly pros dedicated to their craft.
Levitation
Founded in 2008 by members of The Black Angels, Austin Psych Fest was more than just a festival; it was a catalyst for a global psychedelic revival. Paying homage to Austin’s iconic 13th Floor Elevators, the event rebranded as Levitation in 2015. Over the years, Levitation has evolved into a multi-genre extravaganza, encompassing psych, metal, electronic, punk, and a myriad of underground sounds. Levitation strives to honor the experimental spirit of the 1960s, bringing together a diverse community of artists and fans to celebrate the future of music.
