The Cutaway Crossing story:

Believe in the power of music!

One unsuspecting, Saturday afternoon in the Fall of 2005, two childhood buddies - who hadn't seen each other in years - literally bumped into each other in a Kansas City guitar shop. Life after college had taken Woody Bendle and Trevor Howard to opposite coasts but fate brought them back to the Midwest and their love of music got them back together! Cutaway Crossing begins...

Cutaway Crossing is five Midwestern guys who all share an incredible passion for living life, creating, and playing great music. Their motivation is singular and simple - passion! "If you don't have passion - you've got nothin'! If you're not passionate about what you're doin', just stop doin' it!"

CUTAWAY:
The name "Cutaway Crossing" represents the origins and the essence of the band. All of their tunes are developed on acoustic guitars - the majority being cutaways.

"Nothing can quite match the vibe and the vulnerability of three acoustic guitars working it out with the rhythm section...that's when the real magic happens!" wb

Also, playing together is the band's reason for "cutting away" from what they normally do, day in, and day out.

CROSSING:
Cutaway Crossing's music is a "crossing" of a number of influences, genres, textures, and years of very different experiences crossing back and forth across the US. There ya have it. CUTAWAY CROSSING!

Their Sound:
Think about combining The Steve Miller Band, The Eagles, The Old 97s, Tom Petty. Other bands they sound like: Whiskeytown, The Bottle Rockets, Cross Canadian Ragweed.
