In 2015, their debut album was ranked number 47 in the Rolling Stone list of “50 Greatest Prog Rock Albums of All Time.”
Crack The Sky Bio
Led by the visionary John Palumbo, Crack The Sky refuses to rest on past laurels, steering towards an unwavering commitment to conquering the road ahead. In these challenging times, Palumbo envisions music as a catalyst for change. “I want people to think,” he emphasizes. “Entertainment is our craft, but the real magic happens in live performances. Crack The Sky has played with Frank Zappa, Styx, Foreigner, ZZ Top, Boston and Rush to name a few. Overall, I want people to be entertained and, more importantly, to think.”
Amidst the divisive landscape, Crack The Sky’s music stands out as a unifying force. Their ear-rousing, soul-rattling, hard-charging compositions provide a common ground, bringing people together beyond the realm of differing perspectives. In a world seeking answers, Crack The Sky is the anthem that resonates universally—a band we can all believe in.
