Pink Velvet Krush Recruits New Drummer
Pink Velvet Krush welcomes former Gene Loves Jezebel drummer Joe Larsen as the newest member of the band. The group comments:
"We had a short list of musicians we wanted to look at with Joe being at the top of that list. Joe was the guy that stood out. He is the complete package. His professionalism, experience, style, energy and 'do what it takes' attitude is what landed him the throne. Rehearsals are set, new material is being demoed, and we cannot wait to hit the road and let everyone see what we got. Great things are on the horizon."
Born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, Joe started playing drums at the age of five. Privately tutored and professionally trained, Joe honed his skills throughout the years joining his first band Diadem and then moved to Los Angeles, California attending UCLA and graduated with a four year degree in music. Joe auditioned for the band Rockstar Supernova and then went on to join the band Tommy Had A Vision. He did session work and performed at a variety of industry events before getting the gig with Gene Loves Jezebel in 2013.
Joe comments: "As a young boy growing up I have looked up to many artists. I am not just a fan of their timeless music but they are also my musical idols. Dreaming big in hopes that one day I would to have my Led Zepplin moment and write my name in rock & roll history. Thank you Pink Velvet Krush for this amazing opportunity. The best is still yet to come I look forward to seeing you all on the road with Pink Velvet Krush."

It was also a great way to work out any kinks for the upcoming all original Danger Danger show this Saturday August 30th at Revolution in Amityville, NY. The label still has few tickets left for anyone that may need one."
