Over the course of a career that’s spanned three decades, 13 albums, GRAMMY and Golden Globe nominations, film and TV appearances and thousands of performances, Marshall Crenshaw’s musical output is consistent. His first big break came in 1978 playing John Lennon in Beatlemania. Crenshaw recorded his debut single ‘Something’s Gonna Happen,’ which led to a deal with Warner Bros. His debut album, Marshall Crenshaw, was acclaimed as a masterpiece upon its release in 1982 and established him as a singular songwriter, record maker, and guitarist. The album spawned the hit single ‘Someday, Someway,’ and other classics such as ‘(You’re My) Favorite Waste of Time’, ‘Whenever You’re On My Mind,’ and ‘Cynical Girl.’ Along with touring around the country and the occasional recording project, Crenshaw currently hosts his own radio show, The Bottomless Pit.
