Orlando-via-San Diego band CRUZA, Consisting of Adam Kain (vocals), Charity Joy Brown (guitar), and AJ Roth (bass and percussion), CRUZA blend elements of R&B with psychedelic and alternative rock. As smooth as their sound can be, there is something really captivating about what they’re creating, juxtaposing laidback instrumentation with heavy lyricist that tend to explore pain, depression and uncertainty.

They’re working towards their debut EP release, which is being distributed via Terrible Records in the States, who have been home for early records from Solange and Blood Orange. Terrible have partnered up for the first time with UK-based imprint Juicebox Recordings who have a reputation for championing fresh new talent.
