The Crooked Rugs

The Crooked Rugs started back in 2016 as a musical connection between Rex Stowers, Nolan Brumbach, and Jayce Haley. The three would play music consistently together through the years. When Stowers younger brother, Finn, moved up to Fort Collins the band started in full swing. When Brumbach moved in with the now keyboard player, Jay LeCalavier, the band was finally solidified and has been playing consistently ever since.
