Craw Cajun of All Hail The Yeti

 

Ever the renaissance man, Craw has brought forth another very cool solo song/video for the original composition “Stumblebum”. The eclectic track  is accompanied by an eye catching video which was  a collaboration with his wife, Kat Ford NeQuent. For more information about the art of Kat Ford, visit http://www.corpirate.com.

“Stumblebum” is a track that will have you tapping your foot and clapping your hands along with Craw. I thoroughly enjoy this creative side of my good brother Craw, you too can enjoy the video right here:

I know I have said it before the music industry is a small small world. I received a text the other day from Crowned By Fire guitarist Justin Manning about Monte Pittman getting in touch with me about some things. At the same time Monte messaged me about said things. We got in touch and managed to set up this interview. In the course of our conversations we also found out we have a lot of friends and contacts in common. Enjoy getting to know Monte Pittman right here:

My wife, Mrs. Hellion is a very giving person with a big heart. She would help the world out if it were in her power to do so. She was recently nominated by someone to be arrested during the Muscular Dystrophy Association Lock-Up fundraiser. Her crime: Having a big heart. Her goal is to raise $1600.00 bail for the MDA.

They say necessity is the mother of invention. Well circumstances led me to pick up a camera in September of 2012. I have since spent a lot of time learning and will always be learning to understand the art of photography. I have put a selection of my shots up on Flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/117375233@N02/ I would dig it if you checked them out and gave some feedback. Any feedback is appreciated as we can only learn from it.  – the Hellion
