Shannon Crawford started his band, Monster in the Machine, after a decade-long hiatus from releasing music. In the meantime, he's made a name for himself as a serious painter, cultivating a talent he discovered at an early age, and counts Lindsay Lohan and author Jerry Stahl amongst his celebrity clients. Monster in the Machine's album, Butterfly Pinned (out on Korn guitarist James Munky Shaffers Emotional Syphon Recordings), is an expression of the lessons Shannon has learned from his past successes...
I definitely got curious about this guy's band by reading this interview and discovered some pretty nice tunes. Thanks for bringing them to our attention
Real nice interview, thanks Erin... Definitely the type of music that doesn't have to be about big hits or big corporate records and if there is a will there is a way to keep at it and make it happen...
