John Crawford (23)

Bassist/Songwriter John Crawford, born of the UK and raised in California, found the MOD movement in the early eighties and immersed himself in it completely. As a young MOD in the San Francisco Bay Area he quickly became a target for mainstream youth that persecuted those who stood out from the crowd in anything other than sport. Such struggles form the roots for many of his songs. He formed RAF with Chris Rich in 2011 after realizing they both experienced parallel lives as young MODS. RAF is John's first project.
