I'm a huge Rush fan who laments the state of the music industry nowadays that seemingly has devolved into unoriginal, autotuned, prerecorded and computer enhanced schlock, played by mediocre musicians, for people with tic toc attention spans, but Crown Lands gives me hope that the music from the seventies and eighties is still alive and well, and practiced by artists who appreciate well crafted arrangements and thoughtful lyrics that old guys like me were fortunate to grow up with. I wish Kevin and Cody all the best in their careers and thank them for keeping it real and putting out some of the best and most interesting tunes out there. 😊

Totally Agree couldn't say it better !!!

[@davidpousho4828]

Crown Lands has the best album of the year so far! I love how they just own their influences, not trying to hide anything. Cheers to Crown Lands!!!!

[@kirkmcinerney8757]

A true gentleman and an incredible musician. Love Crown Lands!

[@travellerseko]

Certainly 👌🏻

[@craiglawrey7518]

My daughter knew I love the bands such as Rush and Zep, so when she told me about Crown Lands, I couldn’t be more proud. Thank you, daughter. Thank you, Crown Lands. Hope to see you live some day. If you are ever in the Washington state area, please come to Spokane area or north Idaho area.

[@ericdanielson4177]

Just saw them in Victoria, BC last night. I was unaware of them before yesterday and they just blew me away.

[@lyndsayradnedge2888]

The future of prog is bright and I hope Crown Lands can tour the US soon. 👍

I've only recently found this band because a post by Mike Portnoy drew my attention to them. I'm so grateful they are amazing ❤️🤟

Loved this interview! Kevin comes across as very erudite and passionate. The album is a belter btw.

Love Crownlands and all that you stand for. Love Rush and Starcastle what's nots to like

[@oscaririzarry2227]

I wish the best for this band, you deserve to succeed and bring your music around the world and get notice to the multitude. You hace a new fan from Santo Domingo Dominican Republic 🇩🇴. Great interview 👍

[@davethegayguy420]

Wow, you make me proud to be Canadian, (not the crown lands part), all the best to you and your loved ones. Just love you guys, RUSH played my sister's high school, I couldn't get in but listened from outside, (circa 1974) shout out to Sutton & District High School Class of 78', please keep doing what you do!

[@jkl2000]

I've been listening to this album more than anything else so far this year. A very interesting discussion. Can't wait to see and hear more of Crown Lands, and to see what's in store for the band.

[@richardhermans4457]

Love these guys... Man, I wish I had that much energy, but it was great hearing the stories Kevin shared. He's amazing to listen to and watch, and the two of them are fantastic. Have the colored vinyl version on preorder(also have White Buffalo on white vinyl, as well as Odyssey Vol 1(live) on vinyl, we're getting close to release day. Thanks for posting.

[@sabijea]

Kevin doesn‘t need to be interviewed, he runs the interview on his own !

[@TwoandaHater]

Roie, he seems really genuine and honest- hope he doesn't lose that being in that industry.

[@orchidcarpetcleaningrp6061]

Just got Signals on picture disc best album ever for me

[@searley888]

Awesome

[@micheldionne8939]

I've just discovered the band a week ago on a suggestion by Mike Portnoy. Great songs great talents by the two of them. 👏👏👏🤘

[@eljuanman999]

me too!

[@searley888]

Same!

[@RichW]

Yes. Thanks MP

[@JeromeDukes]

Awesome interview, look forward to more from this band.

[@jells40]

Great interview! Please come to Cleveland!

[@mremusic999]

It would appear Kevin is also taking inspiration from Rush in how to simultaneously be an excellent musician and a humble person.

[@kindking8009]

Love that Prog is making a comeback, though I feel the primary form was more intellectual than contemporary works. I hear bits of Giles-esque drum flourishes with several drummers right now and I hear King Crimson getting mentioned all the time, but rarely hear anyone mention ELP. After all these years I don't understand why they don't get the love they deserve, especially in contemporary Prog circles and can't believe they still haven't been inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame.

[@TahoeNevada]

Australian Psych-Rock = Dope Lemon

[@thebailey67]

Having a bigger band is a good idea....a few more folks to carry the load....wow.....

[@ATS3788]

I'm German Love you Guys maybe one Day I looking forward to see you life.👍👍👍👍👍
