From the musically barren state of South Carolina comes a singer/songwriter named Corey Crowder who's music can only be described as timeless. Crowder's music manages to capture elements of the 60's and 70's while still maintaining relevance in the modern music world. With an emphasis on heartfelt lyrics that tell the story of his life and those around him, listeners are inevitably left with words that seem to tell their life story as well.
Corey launched his first serious music project in the fall of 2001, and began recording demos and playing shows under the name A Farewell to Arms. In 2003 he released his first full length album recorded from home called "Certain Starlights and Fleeting Daybreaks." Corey spent the next year and half growing his fan base and trying to play out as often as possible. As things began to grow more and more serious Corey decided to instate a bit of a change. So, in early 2005 Corey decided to drop the name A Farewell to Arms and begin recording and performing as simply Corey Crowder. The decision was due to the growing concern that the name A Farewell to Arms was too confusing for listeners and didn't quite fit the sound that Corey had developed.
Drawing inspiration from artists like Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, and The Allman Brothers, Crowder plans on bringing new elements into the album which promises to be his strongest yet. He and his band are scheduled to begin recording in November for a Spring '08 release.
