Britt Craig
Biography
Britt Craig was
born in Atlanta,
Ga and was heavily influenced by the many ancient Black bluesmen
performing
on the streets of the old Deep South.
Later he
experienced the commercial
folk and blues revival that occurred at about the same time that the
real
blues musicians disappeared from the streets.
Mr Craig spends
his life trying
to carry on the tradition of good original street music.
Britt has
traveled a great deal
and his music reflects many other cultural influences. He is the owner
of Hard Traveller Music Publishing which is devoted to finding and
recording
original street performers, the last of the real folk singers. Thus the
name of his webpage, VirtualStreetcorner.com. Each person he sponsors
is
actually perfoming somewhere on some street corner.
You can
experience the authentic
feeling of live street corner musicians with no studio or artificial
enhancement
with the CD's of Hard Traveller Music.
Britt
Craig grew up hearing
Delta Bluesmen on the streetcorners, Hank Williams in the juke joints
and
Piano Red down in Buttermilk Bottom. His music reflects these varied
influences.
