Jonathan Crayne’s: ”Oknow”

Nate Zuellig and Jonathan Crayne are both musicians from Southeast Michigan who first met while performing for a pit orchestra in the same area. Soon after seeing Zuellig’s drumming prowess, Crayne requested him to join his band Wunderkid for performances in 2018, and are now working together to record music that they equally want to show the world.

Jimmy Eat World, Weezer, Coheed and Cambria, At the Drive In, and Title Fight are among artists that Crayne is influenced by.

Oknow is a snappy EP that offers a fresh perspective on the garage-rock aesthetic. It has distinctive textures and a genuine vibe. The tune, which was written amid turbulent times, paints aural portrayals of determination, sorrow, hope, and fear.

At Chris Momany’s studio in Adrian, Michigan, the EP was independently recorded, while Brandon Cooksey at Inc. Studio in Ypsilanti handled the mastering. With elements of jazz, metal, folk, 2000s alternative, and indie, Crayne’s music ranges from the upbeat summer tune “Setting Sun” to the violent cinematic in “Don’t Play Joker”, whilst maintaining a distinctiveness and tone that exudes sincerity.
