These days I see so many jaded musicians living amongst the world of rockers and it truly bums me out. It’s not that I had never seen these people before, as I grew up in the music scene of Flint, MI - where “jaded” is considered borderline positive. These musicians are jaded for a number of reasons, but let’s not focus on the negative. Let’s focus on why I personally...

Monday's w/ Craigery x 2.
While on tour, sometimes things can get pretty hectic, and overwhelming. I decided to fly home for less than 24 hours to clear my head a bit / get a taste of normalcy then head back out to Houston to meet up with the tour. Well, unfortunately this landed on my Monday w/ Craigery day. So, today, I will be making up for it by suggesting two bands / songs that chaged my life at one point, and...
heads up!
so you guys know, i’ll be doing two bands / songs for you to check out on this upcoming “Monday’s w/ Craigery” - to make up for missing last week. sorry for not being on point, you get worn thin and overwhelmed while being on tour sometimes. <3.
make today yours.

Monday's w/ Craigery.
On tour in barren Hartford, Connecticut, about to play DIY style for an almost sold out show for around 400 people (these shows are my favorite!) w/ D.R.U.G.S.
However, it’s that time of the week again, MONDAY! Therefore, it’s time for me to share a piece of my hidden musical library. I’ve chosen to share with you a band that I’ve tried keeping to myself for almost 3 years...
"Mondays w/ Craigery."
Morning World,
Each Monday from here on out I’ve decided to share a song that is special to me; a song that has touched my life in one way or another, right here on my Tumblr page.
“Why Craig? I don’t get it!” - Well, just breathe.. it’s really easy. It simply breaks my heart to know there are so many truly amazing musicians / tracks out in the abyss of the oversaturated world of music...

Hello via the first snowy day here in Michigan!

The answer is, YES! YES! YES!
I couldn’t be more excited to play these shows, as they will be my last few solo shows for a while (will be working on new D.R.U.G.S material). So, please come out,...
