Album Notes

John Craigie stays true to the essence of folk music, and the traditions of the seminal writers of our past century. With his timeless melodies, and insightful lyrics, interspersed with witty
storytelling, his songs take many poetic turns before they bring you back home. His themes range from social commentary, to personal empowerment, political satire, and modern love. He writes, sings, and plays for the people.

REVIEWS

This album is an incredible contribution to folk music
author: Chad
                            
This is John's second album. It is an overall very solid album. His style is very unique and his lyrics are very inspiring. I love "Winter Pyrite" , "If", "The Please Don't Rain Dance", "Love Is Not A Crime" and "Good Day For The Rain." Again, all songs are awesome and anyone who listens to John's music can relate to any song. If you like Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, or any style of folk/acoustic music, you will LOVE this album. Support Independent Musicians and help keep folk alive!

Magical music that makes you smile, cry, and think

John is an amazing musical talent, and this album will make you a fan too. We Come From the Sky will inspire you to dance and hope, Differences Between the Slaves will gently make you think, and Please Don't Rain Dance will let you know that a voice for good is here to sing us all (every one of us) into a better world.
