Mike Giacolino's muse is as old as music itself, in fact its the underlying genesis for most art.
The loss of love and the struggle to make sense of one's existence after its gone.
With enough pedal steel to evoke Gram Parsons and enough clever turn of phrase to Make Elliot Smith smile, Mike G's music wanders its lonely path trying to straddle the line between comedy and tragedy.
His struggles somehow make us feel more righteous in our own.
One can't help but raise they're glass to him, shake off the chill and toast him with a "man Ive been there". Scott Abrams Dec. 2008
