Crobar Cane Rock

Band Description

CROBAR CANE, a Roanoke, VA based rock band is ready with their 2nd cd for a long and fruitful career. Their unique yet reminiscent sound is present on their debut cd release due out November 23, 2008. Their members: Jason Weeks - guitars, Adam Rutledge -guitars and vocals, Jay Gladden - bass guitar, Brett Fulghum -drums and vocals, and Roger Rutledge - piano, organ and vocals, have been playing together since 2003 in their other band Southbound. "Southbound is a lot of fun and we love playing cover tunes but we felt it was time for us to take the next step and really push our original material, so we decided to create CROBAR CANE." says singer/guitarist Adam Rutledge. The story behind the name, CROBAR CANE is unique and CROBAR CANE hopes that it symbolizes the band's future. "My grandfather who is in his late eighties still goes to work everyday at Rutledge Paint and Body Service, and one day I happened to stop by and noticed that he was walking around with a crowbar as his cane, and that just really had a profound affect on me. At that time we were still looking for new band names and it hit me that Crowbar Cane would be a great name. So we dropped the "w" and here we are. I hope this band can last long enough for us to be walking around using crowbar cane's one day." says Rutledge
