CRAIG BICKHARDT grew up in a musical family and is a singer/songwriter of the old school – reminding one of such ‘60s folk revival artists as Tom Rush, Gordon Lightfoot and Eric Andersen in his work. But there’s also musical sophistication. Craig’s guitar work often leaves jaws dropping. “The guitar isn’t just an accompanying instrument for me – sometimes it’s the front man and my voice is the accompanist.” For many years Craig was more behind the scenes in Nashville, writing songs for the movie, Tender Mercies, having his songs recorded by Kathy Matea, Ray Charles, B.B. King, Johnny Cash, the Judds, Tony Rice Judy Collins, and Alison Krauss. He would come out from hiding to play the Bluebird Café and other clubs in Nashville and finally, the stage called him again. “I think people come to my shows to be reminded that there’s something profound in the small stuff we experience every day,” he says. “My goal is to get an audience to look deeper at the things we all take for granted.” Website: www.craigbickhardt.com
JESSE TERRY: Rooted in rhythmic rock & roll and sharp songwriting, Arcadia marks a turning point in Jesse's career. It's the seventh original album from an award-winning musician who's spent much of the past decade on the move, playing 150 shows annually, including bucket list events such as Bonnaroo and AmericanaFest. Arcadia captures both sides of that musical personality, finding room for amplified anthems one moment and intimate moments the next, showcasing just how wide Terry's reach can be. A grand-prize winner of the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, Terry established himself as a top-shelf songwriter and storyteller even before he built his audience as a solo artist. Arcadia captures him at his articulate, energetic peak, stocked with songs that turn personal details from Terry's own life — including the joys and challenges of fatherhood, as well as nostalgic reflections upon his own childhood — into universal rallying cries for anyone looking to turn the challenges of the past into fuel for a better, brighter present.
