Creye was started in 2015 by Andreas Gullstrand and signed by Frontiers in
2017 after the release of their critically acclaimed EP ’Straight To The
Top’. In late 2018, the band released their self-titled debut album and
shortly afterwards also announced that August Rauer would be the new
frontman for Creye. Most of 2019 was spent touring Sweden and Europe to
promote the album, as well as writing new songs. In early 2020, the band
entered the studio again to record the follow up to their self-titled debut
album. The plan was to refine and improve their songs and approach. The
band’s strong determination to achieve those goals shines through on “II”,
which sounds incredibly cohesive and diverse.
”This album truly is a milestone for us and takes Creye into a brand new
chapter of our career. In 2018, we were still finding ourselves as a band
and I really think that the year on the road was what needed to happen to
bring us together as a group. Creye has always had roots in Rock, Pop, and
80’s music and that’s no different on this album, but we really needed to
make Creye more than a nostalgia trip 30 years back in time. Together, we
decided very early in the process that every creative decision we make
during the writing of the next album needs to be towards making Creye stand
out and be relevant in the present decade. Creye “ll” really is a team
effort and I think that the songs reflect a band where everybody is working
towards that common goal, bringing their own musical personalities,
influences, and preferences based on that goal to make something unique. To
me Creye has never sounded better than this and I’ve never been more
confident in what we’re doing than right now,” says guitarist and founder
Andreas Gullstrand.
If you are into bands such as Work of Art, Art Nation, One Desire, and
H.E.A.T, then this band is for you! Lookout for Creye on the road in the
second part of 2021, conditions permitting.
