Anthony Crawford — National Treasure (May 6, 2016)
♠°♠ National Treasure is just what it’s title implies. Eleven songs in the purest of form that take you on a journey from Mardi Gras in New Orleans to Anthony’s home of southern Alabama to the faraway lands and scenery of Ireland and Scotland.
♠°♠ Anthony Crawford’s guitar and vocal work with such artists as Steve Winwood, Neil Young, Vince Gill, Rosanne Cash, and Steve Forbert earned him a contract with Rounder Records. With a heavy folk–pop sound, his self–titled debut album appeared in late 1993.

♠°♠ Anthony Crawford, born in Birmingham, Alabama, has thrived in the music business working alongside Neil Young, Steve Winwood, and Dwight Yoakam as well as carving out his own solo career, a duo with wife Savana Lee in Sugarcane Jane, and in Americana supergroup Willie Sugarcapps. He currently juggles a multitude of creative outlets including his own recording studio in Loxley, Alabama, Admiral Bean Studio, producing many national acts as well as creating an independent record label, Baldwin County Public Records, with music connoisseur, Jeffrey Zimmer.
♠°♠ “Anthony Crawford is a very talented guitar player, which, when combined with his soaring vocals, makes him someone to watch. He has the ability to turn his hand to almost any instrument and make it sound good.” ~ Steve Winwood
♠°♠ He’s had the kind of career that most artists only dream about. The Forrest Gump of the music business is what is often joked about in the Crawford house. From the age of 18 after graduating high school in Birmingham, Alabama Anthony went from Opryland to the Grand Ole Opry w/Roy Acuff, to being on tour with Sonny James, Neil Young, then Steve Winwood, Vince Gill, and Dwight Yoakam. He’s had appearances on Hee Haw, Austin City Limits, Live Aid, Farm Aid, Showtime, the Late Show with David Letterman, the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Today Show, Grammy Awards Show, made music videos (Wonderin–Neil Young, Gone–Dwight Yoakam as well as his solo videos), been in movies (Heart of Gold–Neil Young, Neil Young Trunk Show–Neil Young, Blackhawk DVD). He’s played on stage with Paul McCartney with Neil Young at Hyde Park. He’s taken cover photos on albums like Neil Young’s Chrome Dreams II and Pegi Young’s Foul Deeds.
♠°♠ The last decade has been an intricate part of Anthony’s ultimate direction. After marrying musical partner Savana Lee and settling down in the rural southern Alabama town of Loxley, and having three children, Anthony is well planted in fertile soil. His focus now lies in his family which led him to create Admiral Bean Studio and Baldwin County Public Records. It is what now drives him as well as enables him to spend more time at home while continuing to explore all creative avenues.
♠°♠ National Treasure is his latest solo release and explores the simplicity of his music and instruments. Thank you to Charles Cort, friend and co–writer, in creating this unexpected national treasure.
