About Crawford & Power:
With roots in country, Americana, and southern rock, Crawford & Power seek to spawn a classic country music revival with a splash of sweet iced tea and whiskey. Ethan's first introduction to music was from his dad, an accomplished dobro player, who toured with "The Steven Sisters" in the mid to late 90s. He is influenced by his dad, Ernie Power, Jerry Douglas, Rob Ickes and Randy Kohrs. Jakes desire to play music grew out of an inheritance of a slew of bluegrass instruments at a very young age. Attending a Hank Williams Jr. and Lynyrd Skynyrd show during his 8th grade year was the TIPPING POINT that inspired him dust off one of the guitars that he inherited and learn how to play. Persuaded to attend an Elton John concert with his mother, he realized that that music is universal. Good music can bring together different backgrounds, races, genders and he emptied his savings account and purchased a keyboard and taught himself to play. The duo met during a public speaking class in college realizing their common style and musical direction. Mutual influences include, The Eagles, John Butler Trio, John Mayer, Travis Tritt, Corey Smith, The Dixie Chicks, Greensky Bluegrass, Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson, Stoney LaRue, and Chris Knight. They started the band in early 2014 and were fortunate to open for Ethan's hero, Jerry Douglas, in their hometown about a month after playing together for the first time and have never looked back. The two started playing shows together and have been touring for nearly five years.
