2016  ROCKWiRED RADiO PROFiLESFEATURES AN EXCLUSiVE iNTERViEW WiTH ANGUS CROWNE OF ANGUS CROWNE AND THE FAMILY JEWELS AND CUTS FROM THEiR SELF-TiTLED DEBUT ALBUM Anyone who
can pen a song damning the "man bun" is all right with us and ANGUS
CROWNE and his band THE FAMILY JEWELS serves up such vitriol on his
band's self-titled debut album. Aside from attacking a hairstyle that
makes men look like "...a girl named Chloe" ANGUS and his band take on
the trials and tribulations that go along with wanting to be who you
are in a world that seems to overlook individuality or the need for
self-expression as demonstrated on the tracks PAYCHECK, LOUNGE DOG,
PUKING and a delightful take on HOAGY CARMICHAEL'S HEART AND SOUL. A
man of many talents, CROWNE came to music following a multi-faceted
creative career that included work as an author, screenwriter,
playwright, theatrical producer, concert producer (BOY GEORGE, QUEEN),
ran two prominent Los Angeles clubs, founder of the vaudeville inspired
SEEDLING ACTING COMPANY in Rhode Island and performing in over 500
theatrical shows across the country. With his band THE FAMILY JEWELS,
CROWNE has created sound that marries the melodic, amiable sounds of
the ukelele with punk music. "Blend those two together and it emerges
naturally as rockabilly with a little country in it," ANGUS says. "It's
a new genre – mine. My music is ultimately about honesty and truth. And
if I get to piss a few people off along the way, then my work here is
done! The album is about where I am in my life right now. It's about
getting older, wiser, but at times feeling frustrated and
bitter."
