(About MP3 downloads at CD Baby)

Contemporary, and sometimes adult oriented acoustic Americana to a driving beat, combining blues, country, folk, irish, ragtime, and more recently classical and flamenco styles in sometimes poignant, sometimes laugh out loud funny songs.

notes

Classically trained in theatre and voice, the Reverend turned to blues, folk, irish, and reluctant country to express his special brand of music.

The Reverend employs guitar players of exquisite cross-genre ability to accompany his excellent vocals, and lyrical sensibility, working with Windham Hill acoustic jazz artist Sean Harkness, Bob Coons of the Jerry Garcia Band, and many others. The Reverend has shared the stage with Reid Genauer (Strangefolk), Spookie Daly Pride, MTV music licensing phenoms Motorplant, members of the Jerry Garcia Band, NYC East Village ragtime sensation Chris Lowe (Van Ronk ragtime) and more.

Starting at parties, the Reverend has moved through restaurants and bars to be a regional player on the pub circuit by interspersing his more meaningful originals with humorous adult oriented originals, two of which ("The Legend...", and "Mail Order Bride") are available on his album "Blow It All". The Reverend supplements his income by booking Jazz artists such as Gordon Stone, Sean Harkness, and for others such as The Chad Hollister Band, Aaron Flinn and Salad Days, Rick Redington and the Luv Machine, Lucy Chapin and former members of the Jerry Garcia Band.

  • Clean or Dirty? Dirty or Clean? Hmmm..not sure which I like better
    author: Edward Burke, a College DJ and music booker in VT.

    If you answred "dirty" to the question above, then look no further then "Blow It All", written, recorded and desecrated on by none other then Randolph, VT. singer-songwriter, guitarist, and pub-hopping troubador, The Rev. Nathan Brady Crain, with help from the extra-ordinary Wyndam Hill guitmiester Sean Harkness, Irish Bodhran drummer Brian Abernathy from Arizona, and a select few, very appreciative audience members. The Rev. Crain (so called becuase he is a unintarian minister when not gigging), gets audiences, (especially on this album) going with his dirty material, ranging on topics from mail-order prostitution, to getting undressed, and other such matters not ready for prime time, but certainly ready for the pub scene. But "Blow it All" does offer some clean material, such as the song "My Life" and others, which showcase Brady's top-notch guitar playing, along with some great riffs from Harkness and actually audible drum beats from Abernathy. So whether you like it clean or dirty, but always live, kick back at the end of the day with a cold one and "Blow It All: live at the Reverend's Naked Diner". You'll gain a whole new vocabulary after listening: gotta love that, right?

  • Don't listen if you're in a bad mood and want to stay that way....

    Boy this guy is funny...but aside from his looks, he's got real talent! If you're in the mood for something different, your in the right place. You get a little bit of everything with this CD; you'll laugh, you'll cry, you may even fart, but you won't be disappointed. I just can't wait to say "I knew him when...".
