***AI is FIRM NO!!!!!!!!!***

©Crackerjack is a dynamic lead, rhythm, and bass guitarist whose sound is deeply rooted in blues-infused hard rock. 

With a musical style that channels the raw energy of Chris Cornell, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Slash and AC/DC, along with influences from Guns N' Roses, Gary Moore, Hendrix, and SRV, his music is a powerful blend of intensity and finesse.

While firmly planted in hard rock, ©Crackerjack occasionally explores folk and acoustic sounds, adding depth and variety to his work.  ©CrackerJack handles all mastering, production and performing as well as playing all the instruments, other than drums, which he is soon to learn . Whilst his vocals are not the strongest, he sings with integrity, honesty and passion.

His discography includes several singles and a standout 5-track EP titled 'Life Stories,' which features everything from the driving rhythm of 'Husk' to the heartfelt ballad 'A Love Untold.'

Collaborations with his good friend Somewhere77' and Wendir.

About Me
Hi, I’m Krissie 💜 I have high functioning autism, which I proudly call a gift, though sometimes it drags me into beautifully bonkers territory. I played saxophone for over ten years (seriously, I could wail).. until I got ill and my arms went on strike. But music? It stuck around. So now I do what I can, I write, engineer, and produce my own songs, shaping them with whatever magic I’ve got left, plus a few emotional plot twists. I mostly post them here on SoundCloud because, let’s be real, this place is easier to manage than the rest of the digital circus.

Since joining, I’ve met some incredible, like minded humans, some aliens too I'm pretty sure. If you want to be friends, yay! Come say hi, I don’t bite unless provoked 🐍 Just please don’t offer to promote me or “grow my following.” This isn’t a career move, it’s not business, this is soul work, glitter therapy, a creative outlet with mood swings. I’m here for the music, the honesty, the connections that don’t feel like marketing.

PSA: I’m a little insane. Hahaha. But in a “lost my sock under the bridge of my own song” kind of way. 🎶🧦💫

To the SoundCloud community, thank you 💜

All my life, I’ve had to hide who and what I am. I’ve never been what the world calls “normal.” As I say in 'I Don’t Write Songs "I Survive"', my brain just isn’t wired the way it should be. I’ve been called weird, not right in the head, bonkers, even crazy. So I learned to mask, to shrink, to pretend. But here.. here, I get to breathe. To be.

And it’s not just the music. It’s the comments, the replies, the strange and sparkling conversations where I finally feel like I don’t have to filter myself. I can be full volume, full chaos, full heart, and somehow, that’s not just accepted, it’s welcomed.

You beautiful humans (and possibly aliens) have given me something I never thought I’d find, a place to be fully myself. To speak how I feel, to show what I see, and to turn it all into sound and words without shame. The way you’ve welcomed me, supported me, seen me, there are no words. (Yes, I know. Me. The Queen of Words. Speechless. Don’t get used to it.)

My heart is so full of love and gratitude, I’m honestly surprised it hasn’t burst into glitter. Thank you. All of you. From the very bottom of my shoelaces 🖤🎶🧦

PS: I think I may have reached my final form. Please advise the fridge accordingly. 🧃🌀👽

Here I would like to present music composed and produced by myself (multitracking guitars, bass, and drums) and pieces that were created in the context of various bands since 1990. Some of the tracks are completely worked out, some are demos, some are from jam sessions, and some are live recordings. When relevant, in each single track the band name is given, the respective players are listed, and details as to the background of the music are presented.
All drawings and paintings were done by myself and, in some cases, by my wife, Andrea.

The new album ‘On The Surface’, is now available Please have a listen if you can

TBR; the sound of a singer/songwriter, but not in the traditional sense! Influenced by a mixture of grunge, garage and metal, TBR takes a solo aesthetic, but applies a rock/metal filter, with a home produced approach. Lyrically, the songs are inspired by a mixture of personal and political issues, with views on modern life that underpins the songs.
