Herofest 2016
We’re very pleased to welcome… White Crosses
Straight out of Warsaw, Poland, Engineer Records is very pleased to have signed and be working with White Crosses on their new EP Anchorless.
We’ve been excited about this band ever since their first release in 2015 but even more so when we heard the new tracks.
The band have their own strong style but it reminds us of the heartfelt melody produced by Jawbreaker.
Anchorless will be out soon, but for now you can check out some older tracks and more information on the band here; www.whitecrosses.pl
