Left Lane Cruiser

“This band is one of the few whose sound is so pleasingly distinctive that I could recognize them 10 seconds into a song.”- Whatzup

Headed by singer/guitarist Freddy J IV with Brenn “Sausage Paw” Beck, Left Lane Cruiser is a bona fide blues rock band from the American mid-west. Left Lane Cruiser has been genuinely living the blues for over a decade, bringing its freestyle jams to crowds all over the world.

Specializing in a raw hillbilly punk-blues style that roars like a tweaking modal chain saw, Left Lane Cruiser is a band led by slide guitarist Freddie j. Evans IV. Their music has the swampy feel of North Mississippi hill country-blues à la Junior Kimbrough and R.L Burnside, with a good dose of snarling garage punk tossed into the mix. While the band would sometimes expand into a trio, they’ve recorded the bulk of their work as a two-piece, and the tough, funky roar of their music arrived fully formed on their 2006 debut Gettin’ Down on It. Left Lane Cruiser stayed true to their sledgehammer take on garage-infused blues, even when they partnered with James Leg on 2012’s Painkillers, added an electric skateboard on 2015’s Dirty Spliff Blues, or brought in a keyboard player for 2017’s Claw Machine Wizard. They returned to the basics of a two-man lineup for 2024’s Bayport BBQ Blues.
