The history of Orry Kraw by Todd Bailey.

The band was originally formed in 1986 by Todd Bailey, Willie Elliott, Stevie Hurt and Lonnie Knowles.  We named the band after a man that live in Browns, Il.  He was quite a character and we thought he was pretty cool, so we modified the spelling and we became  "Orry Kraw".  We played together until 1991 when other obligations and interests seemed to become more important and we just gradually drifted apart.  For a decade the band remained only a memory in my mind.  In 2001 I contacted Willie to see if he was interested in getting together to play just for fun.  To my surprise, he agreed.  It did not take long before we realized how much we still wanted to play. So we reformed Orry Kraw and we have been playing everywhere since 2003.  Our first gig was Hogrock 2003 on the beach.  Has been a wild ride ever since.

 The band members are now:  Todd Bailey on bass guitar/vocals,  Willie Elliott on drums/vocals, Willie Williams on vocals, Jake Martin on guitar/vocals & Jason Hornby on guitar/vocals. Linda Bailey on sound and everything else !!!!!!!!!

We play a wide variety of rock and roll both new and old.

We are working on a new Cd   "90 Proof."

We also offer fully digital recording at the "Showtime Studio" in Browns, Il.  Come and record your band.  Very flexible hours.  Contact Todd at 618-446-5234 for a recording appointment or to book the band. 

I personally want to thank Willie "The Toe" Elliott for sticking with me through everything! And "LITTLE LINDA" for putting up with me and the band !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUPERCAT T.Bailey
