notes
With a songwriting style that echoes Tom Petty, Lucinda Williams, and Wilco, and a voice that's been compared to such luminaries as Bruce Springsteen, Craig Michael Green writes heartfelt songs that are simultaneously memorable and familiar. Bitter Sunday, his debut album, mostly depicts dreamers who find themselves on the ropes. The record refuses to be categorized as it spans from the epic heartbreak of "Wasted" to the Byrdsy pop of "You Get So High"; and from the elusive faith of the sparse "Slipping Away" to the psychadelic moonscape of "Luna Blue". The gritty "Bordertown Blues" manages to be both haunting and hooky and the same time. Take it on your next long drive.
The record was produced by Gary Reynolds (Electrokitty) in Seattle. He also played bass guitar as well as some percussion and piano. The album also features Dusty Haze (Nevada Bachelors, ElectroKitty) on drums as well as Maximillian Keene (Loni Rose) on lead guitar. Gavin Guss (Tubetop, Gavin Guss Trio) contributes some great hammond organ parts and Rene' Jolenet (3Kelvins) adds a soulful back-up vocal to Bordertown Blues.

Catchy, grabs and hooks you, layered rhythm and lyrics, eclectic.
author: Richard WistiWith a broad range of sounds and lyrical nuances, the rougher edge of Bitter Sunday only serves to augment. Listeners get it all, everything from haunting and reflective to driving and coarse to up-beat and catchy. Transportation to various musical realms provided by Craig Michael Green, a ticket to ride will cost you $10.99; well worth the purchase price. Take a listen for yourself to the sample tracks on this site, you’ll understand. The tracks not featured as samples on the site are equally unique, and again, well worth the purchase price. With all the sub-standard, big-label garbage out there, Bitter Sunday is a welcome breath of fresh air.
