A Sweet Pairing of Old Notes with a New Tune
The project is a tribute album to the songs that were written by my father Mike Montgomery when he played with Paul Kossoff and other amazingly talented musicians and bands. The songs will be re-recorded by former band mates, friends, and those that my Dad influenced through his songwriting.
I am working in partnership with Grammy award-winning blues drummer and producer Tony Braunagel and the incredible bassist/composer/producer Terry Wilson (both original members of Back Street Crawler), This is a project that is a long time dream that Tony, Terry, and I have been trying to get together for years.
More About the Music
Music is the common voice that keeps us all connected. We use music to communicate, to share and to unite to our roots. We utilize music to console us in hard times and help us celebrate in times of happiness. There is an undeniably strong correlation between music and people’s story in life. For my father music was everything, so I see no better way than to honor him with his own sound. Empower us to make this vision a reality by becoming a patron of this project today!
Who’s in the Band?
Our entire team are top-notch musicians, who have played on some of your favorite albums and toured with your most loved artists. We are all intimately connected to Mike Montgomery and Paul Kossoff and keeping their spirit alive through music. We love to make music, connect with people and reach all of the Spider and Koss fans out there!

How You Can Help
For us to bring the “Crawling Spider” project to life, we need your support!
Your generous funding will help us get things started in order to realize our concept. It will assist us with the cost of further development, manufacturing and production of the album; we are completely self-funded. More importantly you get the chance to be one of the first to hear the album. All net proceeds from the album (and any pledge amounts over the goal/budget) will be donated to our charity partner Nordoff Robbins (https://www.nordoff-robbins.org.uk/). We are committed to every Patron, making the most of every dollar funded.
The “Crawling Spider” project needs your patronage but above all it needs your attention and interest! If you love this music as much as we do then please take a moment to click on one of our social media buttons (Facebook, Twitter and YouTube at the bottom of the page). Help us spread the word and get things started!
