Brian Krumm of The Great Crusades
Vocalist/guitarist Brian Krumm formed The Great Crusades more than 20 years ago, following
his tenure with The Suede Chain. The Great Crusades’ debut, The First Spilled Drink of the
Evening was released in 1997, earning the praise of Rolling Stone’s David Fricke: “The Great
Crusades look at life through a shot-glass lens, mixing anger, muscle and minor-key remorse like
a roughneck Tindersticks with the bonus of a singer who’s got the tubercular pipes of Tom Waits
and Axl Rose’s love child.”
In 2000, Damaged Goods was released by Glitterhouse Records in Europe and Checkered Past
Records in North America. Next, the Never Go Home tour was presented by Musikexpress
Magazine and the band appeared on the legendary TV program Rockpalast. (The band also
played Rockpalast in 2015—one of only a few bands to play the show twice.)
Welcome to the Hiawatha Inn, Four Thirty, Keep Them Entertained, Fiction to Shame, Thieves
of Chicago and Until the Night Turned to Day followed, each providing a new focus for
Krumm’s ever-evolving songwriting and storytelling. Two songs from Keep Them Entertained
appeared in the season 4 finale of the HBO vampire series True Blood.
In 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic put music venues on hold worldwide, Krumm focused on
solo work and began writing the materials that’d wind up on Just Fade Away. With the album
set for release, Brian Krumm and His Barfly Friends plans to tour in 2023.
