Hello. What's been up with The Great Crusades? Lots!
We are still hard at work on our seventh studio album, which will be released later this year if all goes to plan. Photos, sneak peeks, and video to come soon.
We also wanted to drop you a line to let you know that we will be playing three shows next week. We will be playing some new songs and some older songs, or "crowd pleasers," as Brian Krumm's dad calls them. Our friends from Germany, Planeausters, will be joining us at all three shows as part of their first tour of the U.S. Here are some upcoming key events:
On Wednesday, April 29, at 6 p.m. Central Standard Time, Krumm will make an appearance on Fearless Radio to play a couple new tunes and maybe some live numbers. Tune in:

On Thursday, April 30, we will be playing an "early" show at the Bottom Lounge, 1375 W. Lake Street in Chicago. Planeausters will start at 8 p.m. and we will be on around 9 p.m. Immediately after us, the Norwood Park All-Stars and Vendooza, both from Chicago, will take the stage. It's gonna be a great night!

On Friday, May 1, we return to Mike 'n' Molly's in Champaign, Illiniois, one of our favorite towns to spend rowdy nights and reminisce about "the old days." The three Brians used to call Champaign-Urbana home, and Moder visited them quite a bit back in the day. Mike 'n' Molly's is located at 105 N Market Street in downtown Champaign.

On Saturday, May 2, it's time to stagger in and stagger out at the legendary, "acoustically perfect" Stagger Inn Again in Edwardsville, Illinois. Stagger is located at 104 E Vandalia Street in downtown Edwardsville. Edwardsville is just a stone's throw away from the childhood home of Moder, Hunt, and Krumm, Collinsville, Illinois, which just in case you were wondering is the "horseradish capital of the world."

On Friday, May 15, Krumm and Leach will be playing an opening acoustic set as part of the CD release party for the Chicago band The Somersault Factory. The party will be at the Gallery Cabaret, 2020 N Oakley in Chicago.
