Formed in 2004 in Vancouver, BC KROME is four guys who live Rock-n-roll thriving on live performances. The band in the past two years have toured Canada coast to coast 4 times, played over 200 hundred shows (including touring with the Budweiser True Music Program), had a successful independent CD release selling over 5000 copies (Neglected), a song in the top 50 (Acknowledge), and secured an army of loyal and devoted fans.

In December of 2005 KROME penned a deal with Shoreline/Universal Records and will be releasing on that label their self titled CD in the spring of 2006. The album contains ten raucous tracks that explore everything from drug addiction (Lost in Travel), the dysfunctional modern day family (Human Zoo), the absurdity of organized religion (Dashboard Baby Jesus), to the tragic nature of love (Until the End), it also includes one cool cover (No Time) made famous by “The Guess Who”. Their first single “No One Gives” has just been released to radio and has already received a strong reaction. Their upcoming CD is a perfect primer for the uninitiated, while continuing to thrill longtime fans.

KROME has received raving, critical reviews and the mainstream support of press, commercial radio and Much Loud. Krome graced the front page of the business section of The Vancouver Sun titled “The band with a plan” the article spanning 2-pages. Quebec praises Kromes hard work by printing: “an English band from the West pierces Quebec, wow now that’s surrealism!” (Quebec LeSoleil), to Edmonton See Magazine stating; “Vancouver seems to be producing a new breed of bands, and Alberta seems to be appreciating them. Krome…..is a mix of tightly structured harmonies, deep guitars, and dark, often brooding melodies that interchange with bright, ethereal chorus hooks.” The video for Krome’s single “Acknowledge” was added “out of the box” and into regular rotation on the Much Loud TV channel. The same song has been licensed to MLB slugfest 2004 by Midway Games and can be heard on the Feature Film “La Peau Blanche”.

The road has been good to KROME, logging countless hours of van time and stage experience the band has found themselves veterans of the highway and leaders of a new resurgence of independent Canadian touring bands.

For the record, Krome consists of 4 guys who have the uncanny ability to write songs that are commercially accessible while maintaining an uncompromising rock edge. The band is the brain-child & vision of Shawn Meehan, (singer/guitar player) who assembled a line-up of solid players, including Vancouver bassist Rick The Butcher Williams, Drummer Rod Senft and guitarist/vocalist Randy Robertson who together have developed the sonic attack that make up Kromes live show.

They plan to do what comes natural with the release of their self titled CD by embarking once again across Canada. The hard-working guys of KROME have made it their personal mission to expose audiences everywhere to what has been described as “a live show that belongs in an arena”.
