Back from L.A. Well....after 10 awesome days in the city of angels, Kim(my fiance) and I made it back to ATL to 95 degree weather and 100% humidity. Yeah! We had tons of fun hosting the World Champoinships of Performing Arts out in LA. I was the MC for all the vocal talent on stage, so I got to see many great singers! I also was given the oppportunity to sing in front of all 1,000 contestants to warm them up before the awards ceremony! We made a lot of great friends from around the world. Always a great experience! Now, I'm back on the road and playing it up in the southeast. I just played at a new venue next to the Fox Theatre called Publik Draft House. Cool place! I will be updating my show dates, so stay tuned and I hope to see you there! with love, Brandon Eddie's Attic!
What a great time at Eddie's Attic this past Monday. There were so many great artists! I especially enjoyed Kalie Mosher's songs, like Smokey Mountain Mist and Poet Laureate of Tennessee. I can't get her songs out of my head! Definitely have to co-write a song together soon!
 Greevnville, South Carolina Well, I have officially made my first trip to Greenville, South Carolina last night. And I have to say, I lam very impressed. The people have a very open, nice demeanor about them and the whole atmosphere is very relaxing. It has that nice small town feel in the downtown district, but it not trashy like some other towns. If you have the time, definitely check out Greensville; I know I will again! Brandon First Traveling Show!
NORTH CAROLINA!
Man! This gig was my first time driving out of state up to Charlotte North Carolina to a concert and then straight back after midnight. What a time I had with my drummer Dave Anthony. It was a great experience! I am so thankful that Dave stayed up to keep me awake on the drive back or I would not have made it. It really was a great experience! It may take a lot out of ya, but I love meeting new people and friends. Battle of the Bands?
OK, so recenty I have signed up for this Battle of the bands competition, but it seems odd to me. The idea is to get enough fans to vote for you and the band with the most votes goes to the finals to play a live show...or something to that affect.
But why are they making it so hard for fans to simply vote for their favorite band? In order to vote, as a fan, you have to sign up and create an account with the website with will inhibit many people to vote at all. Instead, the bulk of the votes I am receiving are from other bands who are competing in the show. And then they are asking me to vote for them in return. This seems like an odd competition. Are there any songwriter competitions out there that I have not found yet. I think that may be more up my alley. Anyone got any ideas? As always with love, Brandon Crocker Grass Roots Music
I am now signed with Grass Roots Music with agent Francisco Vidal. Things are starting to pick up! I'm playing about 3 times a week now so keep a look out for me around Atlanta and the southeast!
As always with love, Brandon Thousand Hills Concert! What a great time! Thanks to all of you who came out to support me and Kim at Thousand Hills last Saturday. It was a really great surprise that you all made the time to visit. And this also marks the first time in the history of my music career that the entire audience was quiet and attentive! It was quite a shock I must say, but a good shock. It's because of you all that I am able to get up there every night. Thanks again!So, currently, the next concert is 7pm Thursday May 13th at Abbotts Bar and Grill in Johns Creek. Be sure to come on out and have some fun! I am currently in the process of booking more gigs so keep a look out and I'll send updates. As always with love, Brandon Crocker Good times at Red Rabbits Wow, what a great open mic event! It's so refreshing to play in such a casual atmosphere with other professional musicians and just jam–even with the local patrons! If you are a musician or whatever, come on down every Tuesday to Red Rabbits Bar and Grill and hang with Critty upchurch, Me, and a host of other musicians! Playing Communication Breakdown at Cans Taqueria
What a cool restaurant for music! And the food is great if you are into mexican. Hey, let me know if you guys like the hat. I'm thinking of making it apart of my M.O. I need something for a cool look. And ignore the musical mistakes. I tend to daydream sometimes.

I think it's been since May of 2009 that I played at Ragamuffin music hall in Roswell. It's really nice to have a crowd actually pay attention for a change. I love the new ice cream parlor and coffee shop as well. Awesome! Come on out next Thursday you guys if you want to check it out and check out the video as well.
