   About Craig Brown
I am a singer/songwriter from Seattle, having relocated in November of 2006 from Flagstaff, Arizona.

Field recordings from a barren field of old oak flooring, bedroom for a barn. Suicide blues. The cows make it home, after many trials and tribulations, but the cowboy's habit is hard to break.

Craig

"Piercingly sad." Lierre Keith

"...Your music is like oil stains on concrete that was poured over what once was a crop of barley where now, just one lil' sprig of green drives it's way through the crack in the black spot." Universalia Jane

"great stuff craig, we browns are a rare breed..i can imagine listening to you stuff looking over an icy cold loch drinking petrol from an empty beans can." Craig Brown (not me, a different one!) http://www.myspace.com/twiceshybiteback

"But I have listened to it and I'm blown away. Johnny Cash, Nick Drake, Nick Cave spring to mind but most of all I hear you and it's great. I take it in small chunks. There seems to be a lot of pain and hurt there and until I get my meds increased I can only take so much at a time. It's too bad Johnny Cash died, your songs would have been perfect for him." Michael Baker

"It all started out when I got the demo from Craig Brown, my brother from another mother. I won't go into it but our history is woven together with yarn, disease love and respect. Craig Brown writes some of the hardest lyrics to ever hit the page. I'm not just blowing smoke up his ass either. The song writing comes from the self taught fuck you and fuck me, you're not supposed to do that category, and the lyrics knock your genitals into the dirt." Greg Dale, Sorrow Town Choir

G'day Guys,

We're trying to get the final showcase slot at the 'Big Sound' Summit in Brisbane this September. They're offering the final slot to one act on Triple J's Unearthed, so if you like our music we have decided to give a free download @
http://www.triplejunearthed.com/Artists/View.aspx?artistid=14312 And we ask you in return if you can rate & leave a review of our tunes as these two things are what they will be looking at when deciding.
We'd really appreciate it!

Thanx so much,

Dave & The Boys.

Hi

If you would like to read a sample of one of the stories from ISLINGTON CROCODILES’ you can do that now as one of the stories is posted on the Islington Crocodiles blog page. RAIDERS is the disturbing story of Barwise and Micky.

As Graham Joyce says in his foreword to ISLINGTON CROCODILES, ‘This is the edge.’

You can follow this link direct to the blog page

http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&friendId=464298946

Enjoy it, and let us know what you think, leave a comment.

Also, if you are interested in buying a copy of ISLINGTON CROCODILES you can, as before, do that here: http://host2.clickandbuild.com/cnb/shop/ttapress

Thanks for your interest.

All the best….
