Growing in stature year after year the Crawl is really set to fly.....
Background:
Prior to the sold out events of the past few years Camden Town played host to a scaled down version of the festival from 1995 – 1997. Although a much smaller affair, the ethos of supporting Britain’s developing artists and live music scene through an uncompromising aesthetic, affordable tickets for music fans and by helping to build relationships between like-minded artists was entirely the same.
These now legendary Crawls featured inaugural performances by Snow Patrol, Beth Orton, Mogwai and such luminaries as Echo and the Bunnymen, Moby, Tanya Donnelly and the venerable Wedding Present.
A then pending tenth anniversary acted as a catalyst to re-launch the event in 2005 and following its overwhelming success, the Camden Crawl festival has become a permanent fixture in April’s live music diary. True to historical form, past year’s events showcased early performances by then rising talents who went on to make a significant impression.
This is one event not to be missed!
