Emerging from the speaker like some disturbed four-headed monster and bursting onto the scene with their new self-titled EP….On the tip of your tongue… Can’t put your finger on it… The sound of Squawk delivers flashbacks of 60’s psychedelic rock with flavors of 70’s prog and jam, along with an unrestrained eclecticism that evokes everything from jazz funk fusion to thrash metal and cinematic soundscapes. As experimental as Frank Zappa’s soul patch and as comfortably southern as a hair of Duane Allman’s 1971 lamb-chop sideburns.
Formed in 2019 by three friends and regulars on the Atlanta music scene, Squawk consists of Valdosta native guitarist/vocalist Trevor Carter, jack of all trades bassist/vocalist Jason Chapman, idiosyncratic drummer and trash kit connoisseur Casey Crogan, and a later addition of guitarist/vocalist Scott Shackleford. Carter’s guitar playing is a sort of riff-fueled-freak-mysticism. His down-home, salt of the earth vocal delivery is often times reminiscent of Incubus’ Brandon Boyd—with a drawl, multiplied by Chapman’s Mike Gordon meets Jaco (in outer space) pocket & groove bass chops, Shackleford's precise yet adaptive guitar colorings, that all ride atop Crogan’s off-center drumming like a terror bird in mid flight…This strange brew yields the creation that is SQUAWK. Keep your eyes peeled and ears open for the next live show and latest media releases to Fly with the Flock.
