The driving force of The Crash Motive is front man and singer/songwriter Derek Fuhrmann. “I really hadn’t thought much about a music career until high school,” he recalls, “and even then I only discovered I could sing by accident — I wanted to be an actor. I was told that to be an actor, I had to learn how to sing. I wanted to see if that was possible, and people started telling me I was good.”
Entering college at the University of Delaware exposed Fuhrmann’s to classic rock acts like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin as well as guitar-centric outfits like Radiohead and Dave Matthews Band. By his sophomore year he’d begun playing guitar, “and I almost immediately started writing my own songs. I decided that I wanted to surround myself with people who were more advanced musically than I was, since I’d only been playing guitar for a couple of months.”
In an au courant twist from the usual way of choosing band members, Furhmann went online and started doing profile searches for “University of Delaware students, piano” and so on, collecting an immediate database of potential partners.
