Samantha & Crowd The Airwaves

Samanthais a Brooklyn based Trash Pop trio with a penchant for loud guitars and harmony.
The band relocated from Chicago about a year ago and has since shared the stage with bands like Dead Stars, White Mystery and Unlocking the Truth. They’ve played all over NYC including Cameo, Santos Party House and the Trash Bar and have hit SXSW twice, with plans to return this year. Their new album “Hourglass Noise” is set to be released this spring. “We were going for a Kim Deal, Kurt Cobain and R2D2 on a road trip kind of thing. Not sure we ended up there, but the record is awesome.”


"There is no possible way to not fall in love with this group of strong, loud, and beautifully foul-mouthed women." - Karen Silva, Pancakes and Whiskey


"(Crowd the Airwaves) have made their presence strongly known in the NYC hard rock/metal scene." -Marissa Rodriguez, NextMosh.com


Rock And Roll and Whiskey Sours have some stuff in common: they’re both classic, time-tested, and well-loved formulae that are constantly being reinvented with fresh references.

The music of Crowd the Airwaves is that, too.

Hailing from the Outer Boroughs of New York City, the melodic punk-rock power trio brings a fiery, take-no-prisoners mixture of classic rock, punk, glam, and modern alternative grit, injecting fresh blood into an already-diverse scene. Chunky, guitar-driven riffs and melodies complement radio-ready vocal stylings while colliding into a hard-hitting rhythm section. If Crowd the Airwaves were a Whiskey Sour, the whiskey would be the raw, unabashed power of The Runaways; the sour mix, a healthy dose of Cities-era Anberlin; the ice as the cool rush of the Foo Fighters; and garnished with a lime of the catchy pop-rock of Fleetwood Mac.

Crowd the Airwaves balances pop sensibility with uninhibited bite, just like a good drink: strong and sweet up front, and feeling it later.
