Jason
Crigler has come to be known as one of the most sought after guitarists
in New York City, and has played alongside renowned artists such
as Linda Thompson, Norah Jones, John Cale, Dennis Brennan, Marshall
Crenshaw, Rachel Loshak, Kenny White, Alice Bierhorst, Teddy Thompson,
Erin McKeown, Sandy Bell, Adam Levy, Paul Bryan, Juliana Nash, Edison
Woods, Chris Brown & Kate Fenner, to name but a few. Everyone
who has ever had the pleasure of playing with Jason will know how
special he can make it feel and sound, and what a magical cast he
helps to create within all the music he plays.
Jason’s
upward musical path was interrupted last August 4th, when a bleeding
in his brain was discovered. Jason has been in the hospital since
then, and has endured many ups and downs in his recovery. Jason
is in rehab now, after spending several months in the intensive
care, and is starting to heal and regain his strength.
This
concert is an effort to show support for Jason, and help him and
his family deal with the huge financial hurdles they are facing
now, and those still to come in the future, while Jason is on his
road to recovery. As friends and musicians who have worked with
Jason, it is a chance to give back with our music, a little of what
he has given to us from his heart.

Irving Plaza Box Office
17 Irving Place between 15th and 16th Streets, one block west of
Third Avenue in Manhattan.
