"In the case of The Crossing, the victory is all Brian Lindsay's."
With The Crossing Brian Lindsay has released a remarkable independent record; one that celebrates the heart and spirit of American rock'n'roll. His influences range from Springsteen, Mellencamp, and Petty, to electric Dylan with a dash of Steve Earle thrown in for good measure. Musically, the record features solid performances from Lindsay and a myriad of side musicians, and the production is both crisp and powerful. As with the best artists known for the Americana genre´of music, Lindsay sings from the standpoint of underdogs waging the impossible battle against all odds, yet always convinced victory will be theirs in the end. In the case of The Crossing, the victory is all Brian Lindsay's.
