Backstory:
Immediate Crook is a pop rock band that originates from the bustling city of Portland, Oregon. The band was formed in 2013 when the four members met at a local open mic night. Each had come to perform solo, but by the end of the night, they realized that their unique styles blended together in a magical way not often achieved. They named themselves Immediate Crook as a nod to their abrupt decision to form a band and the twists and turns of their musical journey.
The band worked tirelessly over the next three years, honing their sound and building a local following. Their big break came in 2016, when a video of their performance at a local music festival went viral. From there, Immediate Crook released their debut album and began touring nationally, earning them a growing fan base and solidifying their place in the pop rock scene.

Title:
“Twisted Echoes”
Full Song Lyrics:
Verse 1:
[C] Down the alleyway, [G] under the city lights,
[Am] We found our hearts and [F] lost our minds,
[C] Chasing shadows, [G] dancing in the moonlight,
[Am] And the twisted echoes [F] of our life.
Chorus:
[G] We are the Immediate Crooks,
[D] Stealing the spotlight, [Em] breaking the hooks,
[C] Singing our hearts out, till the [G] dawn takes us back,
[Am] To the place we belong, [F] off the beaten track.
Verse 2:
[C] We sang of love, [G] we sang of dreams,
[Am] Our voices echoing [F] in the night,
[C] Through the laughter, [G] through the screams,
[Am] We found our rhythm, [F] found our fight.
(Chorus)
Bridge:
[Dm] So here’s to the crooked paths, [Em] and the twisted turns,
[F] For in the chaos, [G] a star burns.
(Chorus)

Testimonial from Jenny:
“Immediate Crook isn’t just a band to me, they’re family. Their music is raw, real, and resonates with me on so many levels. It’s like they’ve put my feelings into words and set them to a beat. I’ve watched them grow from playing at local pubs to now selling out arenas, and I couldn’t be prouder. Their authenticity and passion for music is what makes them my favorite band, and will keep me coming back for more.”
