Gannon Fremin & CCREV: “At 8-years together, Gannon Fremin & CCREV have gone from the new kids on the red dirt block into a powerhouse rockin’ powerhouse that encompasses the grit of Southwest Oklahoma with the independent and rowdy spirit that sets Okies apart from most folks. With the a powerhouse frontman in singer/guitarist Fremin, songs merge that connection to the red dirt roots made firm from the seeds planted by Cody Canada by way of the lyricsm of youth and angst found in Kurt Cobain’s best work. With lead guitarist Travis Julian growing into one of the young rock guitar heroes on the map and the rock solid rhythm section of bassist Wade Cartwright and drummer Tyler McCartney, this 4-piece carries the rustic range of the Red Dirt Rangers blended with the punk power of The Stooges in their prime to bring something special to the stage. It’s something that’s been noticed as they’ve hit bigger stages, selling out legendary Grady’s 66 and opening for Kody West, Austin Meade, Read Southall, No Justice, Dylan Wheeler and Giovannie & The Hired Guns.
