about

"Magnificent composition and production talents ... profoundly artistic, creative, and edge-bending, genre-defining stuff. Grab "More City Sadness"- it's classic and an absolutely gorgeous rock pop theatrical record. Independent music art at its finest." Earbuzz

"In a very unique and refreshing indie release, Craig Bennett serves up an off-kilter, trebly, acoustic sound with a vocal style that places emphasis on odd words. ...it's a rare treat to find one so musically mature and satisfyingly original." Stranger Things Magazine

"Bennett's blend of coffeehouse psychedelia and British pop shines even on the darkest of days, and poems-turned-lyrics throw a left curve ...Orchestral strings add a larger-than-life sound to the mix, making More City Sadness something worth anyone's attention." - Omar Perez, Altar Native (Miami, FL)

"More City Sadness" is a wonderful and odd record. In a time when artists no longer practice art, "More City Sadness" stuns with its pure artiness." BangSheet
