JASON CRIGLER
The Music of Jason Crigler
On Aug. 4, 2004, guitarist Jason Crigler suffered a brain hemorrhage onstage. Miraculously, he not only recovered but went on to complete his masterpiece, assisted by friends including Marshall Crenshaw, Teddy Thompson and Erin McKeown. The buoyantly infectious vibe of The Music of Jason Crigler belies any adversity. The radiant “See the Sun” and the seductive “When the Morning Comes” stand out, but other treasures await via the effusive pop of “The Game,” the sultry enticement of “The Bush and the Tree Song,” the wistful reflection of “Through Tomorrow” and the quiet resolve of the autobiographical “The Books on the Shelf.”
