Crew Jones is an American Hip hop band from Duluth, Minnesota. Since releasing their full debut album "Who's Beach" in 2003, the band has performed with Charlie Parr.

Crew Jones often performs at the Homegrown Music Festival in Duluth, Minnesota. They are credited with coining the term "barncore" to describe their style of music. Their name is taken from the hero in the 1986 film RAD. Burly Burlesque and Mic Trout are members of Southwire with Jerree Small.
