For those who want a fast-paced, head-bobbing jam session, The Surge delivers. Big on energy and crowd interaction, the band can be seen at popular Lake area events such as The Lake of the Ozarks Pub Crawl and St. Patrick's Day. Members are from the Lake and Jefferson City areas. “We are a very upbeat band with danceable music and sing-a-long anthem rock,†says member Shawn Crowe.
The Surge started as four guys jamming together in Doug's basement. They didn’t plan on playing “officiallyâ€, but changed their minds when they received a call from Backwater Jack's to fill in for a band that canceled.
You can hear the band at many Lake favorite venues including Bootleggers, Wobbly Boots, Backwater Jack's, Captain Ron's, Jolly Rogers, Dog Days and H. Toad's.
Shawn calls The Surge an “infectious, high-energy, heart-pounding Lake area rock group.†The band plays songs by Wild Cherry, Van Halen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Billy Idol, The Eagles, The Allman Brothers Band and The Hollies. Their sets run the gamut of popular music from the 60s to the 90s. “Our philosophy has always been that nothing is off the table. We have four members who sing and can handle just about anything that's out there instrumentally. We try to pick songs that are popular, recognizable and that have energy."

Despite those formative influences, Brown's guitar style is not easy to categorize or compare to any one other guitarist. Really, it's Kirk Brown, which is as it should be... the blues is self-expression. A strong and powerful singer, his vocal style has been likened to Johnny Winters'.
