Gimme Five! Jeff Crawford

Jeff Crawford cut his teeth playing classical music, but of late he’s made a name for himself in the local music scene.  He’s done time in Americana outfit SpencerAcuff, run the roads with indie roots rockers Roman Candle, and stepped out with soul rock’n’rollers Max Indian and folk lovelies Mandolin Orange. He also released his own 2007’s Something for Everyone, began groundwork on his upcoming release Love is the New Hip, and produced a bevy of local talent through his Arbor Ridge Studios.  So sure the man knows how to multitask, but can he handle five of the hardest questions in faux business?
