emcravens

EMCravens began as an acoustic trio in the city of Austin in 2009 with founding member Mike Hurrell. By march of 2010 the band was well received in the Austin area and was asked to play a total of 7 shows during the SXSW / Red Gorilla music festival. At that point they had a total of 7 members of the band including a bassist, drummer, lead guitarist, rhythm guitarist, harmonica player, percussion player, and piano/organ player.

In August of 2010, the band had a makeover, and the percussion player, harmonica player, and lead guitarist were replaced by saxophone player Rodney Howell, sax and keyboard player of "Eleven Fingered Charlie", a rock reggae band originating from San Marcos Texas. Their first single, "What you want" features a brand new sound, rhythmic changes and a funky beat. In April of 2010, EMCravens is set to open up for the 80's mega band BOSTON at fire lake event center in Austin, TX.
