Joe Craig
My name is Joe Craig and I'm a singer/songwriter/musician from Northeastern Pennsylvania. I've been around the local music scene for about 20 years playing with such bands as Arion, Phantasm, Silent Whisper, Time to Think and 8 balls minus 2. Now it's time I started a new chapter, as a solo artist.
After years of playing with other bands it would always end up breaking up because of creative or personality differences. It was about 5 years ago that i started fooling around with my own stuff going under the name Jjc. I released 3 cd's on my own under that name but now I feel like Jjc has run it's course so I decided to go by my real name from now on.
My music is comprised of Hard rock, Pop, and New Wave influences like Duran Duran,Robert Palmer, Queensryche, and Dream Theater. I play all the instruments on the songs except drums.
So that's the story about me. If you want to give it a listen, E-mail me and let me know what you think.
