Kay Craig (the artist formerly known as Kluso) returns after a four year hiatus with a new full length collection; featuring Kay's "songwriter-singer" oriented format reminiscent of her classic solo acoustic live shows, including a handful of never before heard originals. Hints of pop and alternative country flavor the landscape but the main focus remains the Americana style that has become Kay Craig's moniker. Early Winter Daze sets the opening scene for this compilation that winds through the life-oriented focus of Kay's lyrics and melodies; from Singer's languid observations of the importance of a particular song as a companion to our sorrows, to Mississippi Run's token to the persistent cycle of life's troubles, and Sakura Moon's evocative accounting of the caring but sometimes tense relationship between parent and adolescent daughter growing into adulthood. The Stand launches Kay Craig's call for dialogue about our human condition in the context of world events, followed up by Fallow Fields (the Face of War), which gained acclaim on Neil Young's Living with War homepage (www.neilyoung.com/lwwtoday). Two remixes from Kay's debut CD Delicate Eye (2006) are also available with a pure acoustic version of Since You Been Gone and a remix of one of Kay's favorites - Paradise Road. No One Else Like You highlights an atypical Kay Craig pop piece reminiscing about "young love". And, as a special thanks to her fans, Kay included the prized single release of her timeless version of the Oasis anthem Wonderwall. All music and lyrics by Kay Craig, with special acknowledgement to fellow songwriter and friend Vince Constantino for his piano arrangement and performance on Sakura Moon. Also, thanks once again to friend Bill Anders - http://billanders.smugmug.com - for his beautiful cover photo art (S-Fern).
