Jeffrey Krantz and Nashville Unsigned
We at Nashville Unsigned are stoked to have the opportunity to interview Jeffrey Krantz. With a retro style from the golden age of rock and roll, Jeffrey Krantz and band bring a psychedelic good time with each song off their debut, self-titled album “Krantz”.
Krantz has a timeless artistic style
Their album art resembles a good, old-fashioned acid trip, complete with Gandalf, Cleopatra and angels. All of which are topped off with the chilliest tiger you’ve ever seen. I mention this because it paints the perfect portrait of what you get with this classic rocker and his band of rock and roll hooligans.
Krantz adds a David Bowie-esque, star child flavor to his live performances and far-out music videos. His make-up and free child hippie flair come out as his edge on stage. His band is just as talented and free-spirited as he is, so the performances are always on point.
There’s no doubt these guys love a good time, which makes them a lot of fun to listen to.
“Queen Cleopatra”
“Queen Cleopatra” is the latest single from this batch of Nashville emerging artists. The song and video capture most of the album’s vibe. They even included the queen of the Nile herself right on the cover.
This is an indie groove with a lot of style, and the psychedelic flair of their look and sound is composed well in the music video.
Other songs like “Change My Ways” and “So Naturally” add multiple instruments to the fold. This adds to the music by backing the songs up with strings or a brass section to add to that classic, golden-age rock that makes Jeffrey Krantz stick out.
Jeffrey Krantz isn’t afraid to bring it when it comes to guitar-picking solos either, whipping up tasty guitar chops in the majority of their songs.
Check out their website to download the album or follow them on Facebook to keep up with their upcoming shows. With these guys, a big show is guaranteed, not to mention some seriously good times.
