NEWS & UPDATES! (07/2010)
Hello Again!
The Creepfunk Crusaders known as steez will be hitting the road for a brief but jam packed summer tour in a few weeks. We'll be making our debut at a slew of new venues throughout the southeast, with stops in some cities that are so steeped in musical history that we cant even begin to express how excited we are to visit them, let alone play shows there.
Since we havent played in a lot of these places before, we would be so humbled if you could invite any of your friends that live in the cities we are playing to the events we've created for each show. If you go to the STEEZ facebook page, you will find individual links to each show we are playing and you should be able to invite anyone you wish to any of the events. Again, we thank you very much for helping us out and we hope to see you down the road sometime soon!

”I must say that this is a hugely impressive debut album from Steez that I cannot recommend enough. Catch this band and see for yourself.” - Musical Stew Daily
“Generally speaking, Steez is a band in the sweet spot; that point where they are really clicking with one another and getting a lot better, fast.” - Glide Magazine
“This group possesses the intuition and communication skills to make the shit work, no doubt about it.” – Jambase.com
"Steez presents a muscular, energetic blend of funk, jam, and groove with “Creepfunk Crusade.” - Homegrown Music Network Review
“Funk behaves as the base vibe from which the band then takes fanciful expeditions towards progressive, electronic, and just plain different sounds. With a strong through line that remains a highly danceable funk groove, there’s an astonishing level of cohesion through some rather adventurous sonic sojourns. When it works, that’s Creepfunk.” – Jambands.com
