Blue Crow - Trust
Lyrics video for Blue Crow's new single dropped just two weeks ago!In times like these, we trust a system that is corrupt and full of racism. We praise those who fight for a just cause, but the unfaithful must be called out for their oppression.

Fronted by the honeyed voice of Amy Greed and crowned by duelling funk guitars, theirs is a high energy brand of groove with a message.By using aspects of Arabic, Afro-Cuban, and Indian music in a western songwriting context, Shutterdog provides a crucial first step for listeners to begin exploring other cultures. Led by vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Matt Nobile who served as the lead vocalist and principal songwriter for the world music band Datura Road from 2015 to 2020. The band’s diverse repertoire meant often switching between the guitar, oud, and penny-whistle within a single set of music.
