fRITZ bEER & The Crooked Beat

The Crooked Beat are an Acoustic/Americana rock band out of Asheville,
NC, headed by Singer/Songwriter Fritz Beer. Beer writes spirited, songs
about good-hearted people who sometimes go astray, told with a
voices that waivers somewhere between a Joe Strummer snarl and a Tom
Petty whine. It's American music informed by rock, country, soul, and
English rock, laid out in a simple acoustic format.

Cajon player
Elzy Lindsey and acoustic bass player Dave Baker are the Crooked Beat.
They come to Asheville by way way of New Orleans courtesy of Katrina.
Louisiana's loss is North Carolina’s gain. This joined-at-the-hip rhythm
section has been making bands and singers look better for years. In
this all acoustic format with Beer their skills truly shine.
