Tee and Thee Crumpets

With three out of the four members of Tee and Thee Crumpets originally hailing outside of their native San Francisco, Tee (vocalist/ bassist formerly of Portland, OR), Paul (guitarist, formerly of Canada), Chris (guitarist/organist formerly of Washington, D.C.), and Chris Harvey (drummer, formerly of the Count Backwards) first assembled in 1997. With an inspiration of raw garage punk comparable to the likes of Supercharger and the Mummies, the quartet released their self-titled debut EP in 1999 on their own label. That same year, Tee and Thee Crumpets signed to Dionysus Records and eventually put out the full-length Introducing Today's Young Hitmakers in the spring of 2000. ~ Mike DaRonco
