Crushed Out is an electrified honky-tonk surf duo from Brooklyn, NY, who's joyous and high-energy live shows are known to melt cold cold hearts and set folks to dancing in the aisles. Their new record TEETH, built on a foundation of timeless melodies ringing with crystalline reverb, fans the fire they lit on their 2012 debut Want To Give. The husband-wife duo of Moselle Spiller and Franklin Hoier draw deep from their shared love of 'atomic' 50's rock 'n' roll, country blues, and SoCal surf guitar to creating a sound that delivers on all those things rock 'n' roll promised us so long ago... -- -- Spiller and Hoier met in the hall of the Bushwick, Brooklyn apartment building both were living in; Singer/guitarist Franklin a rambling acoustic songwriter from Southern California, drummer Moselle a recent art school graduate. Both having come from long lines of musicians and engineers (Hoier's father was in The Messengers, the first all Caucasian band signed to Motown, and Spillers uncle is the founder of hi-fi speaker company Ohm Acoustics in Red Hook, Brooklyn) the two quickly bonded over art and music. -- To Spiller and Hoier, "Crushed Out" has myriad layers of meaning, all which are reflected in their music; beaches are made of millions of shells and rocks crushed out into sand. "Crushed Out" is both 20's slang for busting free from a bad situation, and 80's slang for the weight of love when you fall for someone. TEETH is their ode to all the potential energy wrapped up in life, in the ocean, and in love. Crushed Out, our friendly purveyors of Oceanic Outlaw Love.
