Crooked X: Rock N Roll Dream on MTV


Crooked X’s ‘Rock N’ Roll Dream’ MTV Documentary

We told you about Crooked X, these are four 14-year-old hard-rockers from Oklahoma.
For these teens today is a big day as their self-titled debut album is in stores now, and a special mini-documentary on the band, “Crooked X: Rock N’ Roll Dream,” will be telecasted at midnight on MTV.
“The special is about our journey from playing at a place called Joe’s Crab Shack in Tulsa to opening for KISS for 35,000 people,” frontman Forrest French told . “It’s just the steps of what you go through to get up there. It’s only 30 minutes, but I guess if it goes well, it may turn into something bigger.”
For Boomer, Forrest, Jesse and Josh bigger means even more mainstream exposure for the teens, who have already had recent high-profile appearances on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and the halftime show at the final Dallas Cowboys game at Texas Stadium.
And, despite their age, a lot of fans have been won over during these live performances. “The first couple of songs, they’re like, ‘Hey, are they really playing?’ ” bassist Jesse Cooper said. “And then, three or four songs through the set, they’re going, ‘Hey, they really can do this!’ ”
Still think they’re just some novelty act? Let the documentary speak for itself. The band said that over 400 hours of footage was shot for the short doc — and the results should prove that this band is to be taken seriously.
So enjoy the teen dream the next generation band“Crooked X: Rock N’ Roll Dream” airs tonight at midnight on MTV.
