London, UK – The year is 2023, and amidst the ever-evolving soundscape of modern music, Liverpool & Warrington’s very own four-piece powerhouse, CRAWLERS, are forging exhilarating rock anthems that harken back to the electrifying grunge era of the ’90s. Yet, these anthems are imbued with a contemporary lyrical depth that speaks to the heart of today’s youth. With their latest sonic revelation, ‘Would You Come To My Funeral,’ the quartet is poised to take the UK and Europe by storm as they kick off their headline tour.
A Sonic Journey Through Time
‘Would You Come To My Funeral’ is a musical tapestry that weaves the echoes of ’90s grunge with the raw emotions of the present. The track, which debuted as yesterday’s Hottest Record on BBC Radio 1, is a testament to CRAWLERS’ ability to harness the nostalgia of a bygone era and infuse it with contemporary relevance.
Building up over a fuzzy riff, indelible melodies, and stomping drums, the song culminates in an uplifting, epic chorus. Lyrically, it delves into the complexities of fractured relationships and the haunting question, “Have you ever looked at someone who meant everything in your life and now is a complete stranger and wondered – if you died, would they attend your funeral?” Holly Minto, one of CRAWLERS’ members, poignantly encapsulates the song’s message.
A Remarkable Ascent
CRAWLERS, formed in 2018, honed their craft through intimate performances in their Merseyside hometown. Their dedication to live music paid off handsomely, propelling them to new heights in the past year. Their captivating live sets left audiences awestruck at prestigious festivals like Glastonbury and Download. Moreover, they had the privilege of supporting the dynamic YUNGBLUD at the iconic Eden Project in Cornwall.
Each release from CRAWLERS has been a sonic revelation, solidifying their status as one of the UK’s most promising young bands. Their debut mixtape, ‘Loud Without Noise,’ not only garnered global acclaim but also contributed to an impressive tally of over 80 million streams to date.
