Crocodile Tears is a four piece Rock n' Roll outfit from Austin, Texas.

The band debuted the 7” single, “Back Alley Boys” March 2017 on Resurrection Records, full of mid-tempo power pop rock and roll in the vein of Thin Lizzy, Cheap Trick, and The Exploding Hearts with powerfully driven guitars and razor sharp hooks.

Instead of relying on trickery or false imagery, Crocodile Tears craft songs that leave the listener affected. Rock n' Roll is meant to do things to the heart; and it's been designed for the groove since Chuck Berry first duck walked. With their amplifiers cranked and guitars pushed to the sonic limits, Crocodile Tears offers up straight Rock n' Roll, no chaser.
