Still Creek Crows is a collaborative project between long-time friends and industry veterans Britt McKillip and Matt Rose.
As one half of the award-winning duo One More Girl, McKillip has been entrenched in the entertainment industry since childhood, well respected as one of the country’s most in-demand session singers with a slew of film and television credits to her name.
As a member of the award-winning roots rock outfit The Matinée, Rose has developed a reputation for his engaging, dynamic performances and multi-instrumentalism, cutting his chops as both a session and live musician with the likes of Tom Cochrane, Dallas Smith, Jet Black Stare and more.
Combining a wealth of experience with formidable artistry and vulnerable lyricism, succinctly coming together to form Still Creek Crows, the duo cites The Band, Patsy Cline and Hozier as just a few of their many musical muses.
Forging new sonic ground and infusing elements of roots and alt-country music with modern pop-rock production, their self-titled debut album is just the beginning of the road for Still Creek Crows, and with a multitude of tricks in their vast musical arsenal, fans can expect more exciting announcements coming soon.
