CRIG is the debut solo project from the singer from Leeds post-punk outfit AUTOBAHN. A lo-fi, satirical take on the singer-songwriter tradition, reminiscent of early Guided By Voices. These are raw, unfiltered diary entries, delivered with directness and a DIY spirit. Here’s how the man himself describes it: CRIG is Vegas Elvis, CRIG is a late, but caring midwife, CRIG is a butterfly that never dies, CRIG is a bong hit of 20 Marlboros on a summer's night. CRIG is a denuclearised rocket, CRIG is a satellite drifting into space, CRIG is a burning rain forest, CRIG is a jellyfish lazing in a sea of disgrace. CRIG is a fan of the underdog, CRIG is a world without fear, CRIG is Winona Ryder in Heathers, CRIG is Evel Knievel's rear wheel. CRIG isn't a battle, Or a fight to kill, CRIG is for future, CRIG is free will.
