Detroit rock band, 60 Second Crush, cranks out a lethal mix of killer guitar
crunch, thumpin’ grooves and balls-out punk intensity. It’s a sonic
assault that makes you dance, sweat and raise your middle finger in salute to
music that’s Detroit's great rock and roll tradition. Formed in early
1998 60 Second Crush’s revved up sound and full-throttle stage show has won
over national and local audiences alike, while earning the band critical
accolades.
A mix of former members of some of Detroit’s most notorious bands (Motor
Dolls, Down With Hatred, and Plow), 60 Second Crush features Tom Harman
(vocals), Eric McDonald (drums), Dana Forrester (bass), Peder Seglund (guitar)
and Tom Furbacher (guitar).
60 Second Crush’s first full-length release, “Love For a Minute” (Aural
Pleasure Records) was released in Sept. ‘98 and was nominated for “Best
Local Rock Record” in the 1999 Detroit Music Awards. The disc’s
single “Jam” was featured on the Detroit Red Wings 1998-9 CD ROM Yearbook,
which sold over 1 million copies worldwide.
Since then, the Crush has been a rock and roll workhorse - writing,
recording and doing what the band loves best - playing live. The band
toured extensively as the opening act for platinum sellers (and hometown heroes)
Sponge. 60 Second Crush also toured Europe twice - even netting the
headlining slot at the “Free and Easy Festival” in Munich, Germany.
They won WIQB’s (Ann Arbor) “Battle of the Bands” - landing them a trip to
Mexico and gigs in South Padre Island, Texas for New Year’s Eve (2000). Later
that year, 60 Second Crush was nominated for “Best Rock Band” in the Detroit
Music Awards, hosted by Kid Rock.
Back at home in Detroit - 60 Second has opened for a staggering array of
national artists including Buck Cherry, Fingereleven, VAST, 12 Rounds, Stuck
Mojo, Corey Glover, Thrill Kill Kult, Corey Glover, Jimmie’s Chicken Shack,
The Amazing Crowns, Marky Ramone and the Impotent Sea Snakes. Despite
being tour support for bands of such different genres - 60 Second Crush has
always risen to the occasion and simply put, kicked ass.
With smokin’ showcases at the prestigious SXSW Music Conference, and a
rollicking live show at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (where they have an open
invitation to perform), under their belt 60 Second Crush is currently touring in
support of their new CD “Scratch” (Aural Pleasure Records).
