Aaron Crawford & The Badcards CD Release Party + Fight The Lion April 28, 2012

After 5 years touring in the band Rude Buddha on the cult hit "Miss California", which included back to back DC 101 Chili Cook-offs in '05 and '06, and deals in the States and Japan, front man Aaron Crawford needed some "musical soul searching". In his quest for truth, he formed Aaron Crawford & The Badcards and after a short residency at the Viper Room in Los Angeles Ca, he hit the studio and recorded his first solo effort "The Wager"! "The Wager" featuring Joel Shearer (Alanis Morrisette), Adam Macdougal (The Black Crowes) and Larry Ciancia (Everlast, Ban Taylor) as well as a co-write by Joshua Lopez who took home Grammy honors for his work on "American Boy" for Estelle in '09, is sure to be a buzz worthy album in the upcoming year! This is a show you don't want to miss!!

Fight the Lion is true, attention grabbing, hook driven, rock music from the soul. They bring excitement back into rock. Their soaring harmonies, edgy guitars, pounding rhythms and catchy hooks will have you singing along after the first listen. In the vain of bands like Foo Fighters, Van Halen, Stone Temple Pilots, Shinedown, and Muse, their music aims to bring a new flavor of rock to the table but still keep that same classic epic rock sound that we all know and love. The name Fight the Lion was chosen to convey a positive message of overcoming, facing your fears head on, and fighting through your obstacles. Their music keeps your energy up, your fist in the air and your head pumping while the lyrics take you through life's highs and lows, struggles and victories.
