Larry Crowley’s musical roots began in his living room in Maine, rehearsing with his father’s country bands.  When he landed his first professional gig, he was only 9 years old.  Standing on a milk crate, he belted out “Folsom Prison Blues”.  By age 11, Larry had already formed his first rock band.  Over the years, his bands would stretch the boundaries of rock, through swampy blues, soulful originals and electrifying stage shows.  One of those bands earned their way into the top spot in 3 states, and an opportunity to share the stage with The Outlaws and Chubby Checker.   It was then that he was first called Larry “Rock-n-Roll” Crowley.  It would not be the last.

He was later hired to play guitar for Jimmie Rodgers (Honeycomb, Kisses Sweeter Than Wine).   Then as bandleader for country music’s “21st Century Cowboy”, ROYAL WADE KIMES, he shared a lot of big stages with the likes of Rascal Flatts, Carrie Underwood, Little Big Town, Deana Carter, The Bellamy Brothers, and Ted Nugent. You can also find Larry’s distinctive rhythms behind Garth Brooks and Danny Davis on selected Royal Wade Kimes CDs.  He’s even made an appearance on the Grand Ole Opry stage with gospel legends Legacy Five.

His song-writing collaboration with Kimes has garnered a Billboard Top-60, a European Top-10, and a # 4 in the Netherlands.
