The Baseballs/Crazy In Love




Crazy In Love by Beyonce achieved number 1 in both the UK and the US and was top ten worldwide. The song is iconice and Beyonce experienced critical acclaim and won two Grammys for the song. Jake Nava produced the iconic video and also produced Usher's 'Burn', Britney Spears' 'If U Seek Amy' and Beyonce's 'Single Ladies', with both Beyonce videos being famous for the dance sequences. Crazy In Love was voted number 3 in Rolling Stones best songs of the decade and still enjoys regular airplay now.


The Baseballs are an all male trio from Berlin who met in a hard rock cafe and started talking due to their mutual fashion. They found popularity with their 1950's take on 'Umbrella and 'Hot 'n' Cold' and feel they lead modern songs to their 'true calling'. After attending a Baseballds gig it was clear they had a diverse audience, not only older people enjoying the nostalgia of a forgotten era but also young people enjoying an alternative take on modern hits.
The Baseballs seek to promote not only 50's music but also a 50's lifestyle and are famouse for their three way Elvis hipshake.
