“Craig Cardiff is a rare talent. You're never quite sure what you're going to get — spoken word, songs that break your heart, stories that put them back together again. There's usually either a fist fight or a wedding after a show, sometimes both."=0D=0A=

Craig Cardiff's voice has been described as “warm, scratched, sad and sleepy.” He builds landscapes of sound using live digital loops and brings the room to a hush.=0D=0A=

The prolific songwriter from Ontario released his latest album, Floods & Fires, in November, and it has just been nominated for a Juno Award as Roots and Traditional Album of the Year.=0D=0A=

“Like Neil Young, I’m an epileptic who loves both the scream of distortion and the peace of the acoustic,” says McMahon. “Like Eddie Vedder, I wear all of my influences on my sleeves, where Tom Waits, Buddy Holly, Warren Zevon and Bruce Springsteen all reside.”=0D=0A=

For the past decade, McMahon has been writing and performing in Vancouver and his hometown of Ladysmith. He released two new full-length albums in the past year – the stripped-down, acoustic All Good Stories, and the full-band Put the Past in a Flask and Drink It.=0D=0A=

“Music is life, and I’m just as happy playing to 10 people in an intimate house concert as I am playing to 10,000 at a folk or country festival,” he says. “Either way, a day above ground playing my songs and supporting my family while doing so is a great day.”=0D=0A=
