"...Smith’s musings on age, love and his place in the world strongly recall Jeff Tweedy’s melancholy side...His gift for melody makes this a triumphant record." Exclaim!
"...Tongue-in-cheek swagger reminiscent of one of his main songwriting heroes, Paul Westerberg...Not Sure Not Sure easily stands alongside any independently-produced Canadian album of recent memory." KW Record
"...Craig Smith is quickly gaining recognition as a first-rate songwriter who is drawing comparisons to such iconic performers as Jeff Tweedy and Neil Young...A wonderful songwriter." CBC Radio 'Fresh Air'
"...His baker's dozen of Crazy-Horse-plays-Flaming Lips urban-country rock is a triumph of melody, volume and conviction." Echo

Hey Craig great to hear from you. I finally started a page it's been a slow dial-up, mountain process. I've been checking in on your tunes for the past while. Your new album sounds awsome can't wait to get a copy. Peace Kenny
My friend...I'm not certain of your geography, but if you're anywhere near Toronto, I'd like to personally invite you for a drink and a smile at Sneaky Dee's on Thursday, the 19th of June. We'll also be accompanied by a couple of very stimulating and courteous bands (ADA & The Isosceles Project) that will make for an especially high-caliber musical party.
Our new EP "Lights! Camera! Action!" is now on myspace, and will only be available (in the meantime) at any of the upcoming gigs we're playing, the first being Thursday 12th June at Remix in Hitchin. See flyer below for details, and other gig dates..

Thanks for your message, i'm honored that you enjoyed some of my songs! I'm going to put other songs soon, I'll let you know if you're interested. Sort of bedtime here in France, looking forward to my phase #2 on your page...! 8) *m*
Hey! I like to be in a special mood when listening to good music. My passing by your page will then have two phases. Tonight is Phase #1, listening to your lovely tunes (and such a nice unique voice!)while finishing some work. I don't know how many times the songs have been re-repeating themselves but I just love it!! More when I'll be on Phase #2, and that would be sitting for a while and REALLY listening to lyrics and chords for a more specific comment! Thanks for providing me such a good soundtrack tonight! 8) *marion*
