Craig Walker，出生于1971年，Archive乐队前主唱。 Craig Walker first made his mark in the late eighties with his Dublin-based band Power of Dreams. In 1989, while Craig was still in his teens, POD released their critically acclaimed EP, A Little Piece of God. The following year they were signed to Polydor and released their debut album, Immigrants, Emigrants and Me, a record that was ‘remarkably mature work for ones so young, especially the songwriter, Walker.’ NME hailed Craig as ‘the most exciting songwriter I’ve heard this year.’ The band embarked on a global tour of more than 30 countries including Japan and North America. In 1992 Craig and the band moved to London and released 2 Hell With Common Sense. In the following two years they released Positivity and finally Become Yourself, which suitably titled, marked a further evolution in the bands sound and ‘delicately completed a set of recordings which are a rare and lyrical insight into the life journey of adolescence to parenthood’. Wasting no time in moving forward, Craig formed the band Pharmacy and released the single Shine. In 2000 Craig joined the progressive electronica band, Archive and released four albums on East-West France to growing popularity and critical acclaim. In 2001 the benchmark single Again was released on the album You All Look the Same to Me and broke the band in new territories throughout Europe. Extensive touring followed until 2002 when Archive composed and recorded the entire soundtrack to the Luc Besson production, Michele Vaillant. Considered by many to be Archive’s masterpiece, Noise was released in 2003 to glowing reviews and further expanded the bands popularity. Craig’s involvement with Archive was complete with the 2004 release of Unplugged. Expanding his range of artistic achievement, Craig moved on to work with various composers including Nathaniel Mechaly, Michael Nyman and Nicolas Errera. He has played with an eclectic assortment of talent including The Athens band Transistor, the French house producer Demon, Nick Muire of Bedrock, Juini Booth of The Sun Ra Arkestra, Grand Popo Football Club, and The Fitzcarraldo Sessions. Siamese is Craig’s newly released debut solo album, which was produced by and co-written with Bardi Johansson in Reykjavik, Iceland. The collaboration of these two artists has resulted in a beautifully crafted collection of songs with careful arrangements and lyrics of keen observation and timely appeal. The album strikes a delicate balance of dark natured, hard hitting songs such as Greedy Pig, and contrasting anthems of optimism and hope such as Summertime. The song Bright Lights was featured in La Fille du Rer, Andre Techine’s latest film, and was the public’s first opportunity to hear Craig’s newwork. The album has been released to glowing reviews in France, Belgium and Switzerland and an Irish release is scheduled for the 28th of January with tour dates to follow.
