Renowned for his eloquent Americana style, engaging live shows, and
off-the-cuff clever observations, John CRAIGIE CARRIES ON THE LEGACY
OF CLASSIC SINGER-songwriters, while blazing a trail of his own.
Recently, that trail twisted and turned into new territory for the
Portland, OR performer who The Stranger appropriately dubbed, “the
lovechild of John Prine and Mitch Hedberg.” His music speaks loud to
both audiences and fellow artists. Todd Snider notably hand-delivered
a gift on-stage, and Chuck Norris has sent fan mail. His fifth
full-length album, No Rain, No Rose boasted two collaborations with
Gregory Alan Isakov, namely “Highway Blood” and “I Am
California.” Both quickly cracked 1 million Spotify streams and
counting, as his knack for a captivating narrative and rustic aural
palettes powered the 13-track offering together.
“It’s about transparency,” he explains. “The storytelling
enables listeners to relate. Really good music doesn’t make you feel
good; it makes you feel like you’re not alone.”
