The Family Crest is a baroque pop band from San Francisco, known for its sweeping and cinematic soundscapes. Led by songwriter and composer Liam McCormick, The Family Crest was named NPR Music’s “Favorite New Band of 2014” and on Paste’s “Best New Bands of 2014” list for its album “Beneath the Brine.” With seven core members who perform the music in concert, and an “extended family” of over 500 collaborators, The Family Crest embodies “ambition wide enough to swallow you whole.”

After performing at Sundance and contributing music to campaigns from GoPro, Coachella and NBC, The Family Crest will be hitting the road this summer. “Seeing is believing,” explains Bob Boilen of NPR Music. “Liam McCormick is a knockout singer, you simply must hear him live…. There’s a decent chance you’re about to discover your favorite new band.”

 

The Family Crest performs “Beneath the Brine” on Audiotree Live, June 30, 2014. I seriously can’t fathom how this band hasn’t gone international yet. This is such a powerful performance. This is true talent. Nobody know what they’re missing. Chills everywhere. Hats off to you guys and keep it up. I want you to be on the radio every day, in every city. Cannot wait for you to hit the UK.
