State Line Mob

When you think of modern day southern rock n roll, the band that is going to come to everyone’s mind is the State Line Mob. Their blues-country-rock line-up is a Southern outlaw sound & image that’s hard to forget. The band was formed in 2007 by Shoals area vocalists/songwriters Phillip Crunk and Dana Crunk. They both previously played for years, separate and together in many counrty and rock bands,while cutting their teeth in some of the south’s most dangerous honky-tonk taverns along the state lines, where they learned the true meaning of southern grit and tough determination. At the time they formed the State Line Mob, the two were playing for tips & beer at a dive surrounded by a swamp in Tennessee & private biker parties in Northwest Alabama. The group was discovered in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, by producer Chris Sevier, who has worked with artists such as Eliot Morris, Matt Woods, Chad Bradford, Painkiller Hotel, and Jason Childers. Sevier, who discovered the band while traveling to Nashville, signed them to his Severe Records on a non-exclusive basis. And in doing so, an authentic southern sound is what he got.
