The song Man to Man was written by Craicdown’s Rob Sharer, while accordionist David DiGiuseppe produced the video. “We hope you enjoy the flick as we bring a bit of humor to the current tragedy of North Carolina’s politics,” says DiGiuseppe.
Craicdown describes its music as World Acousticana: acoustic roots music with a high-energy, rock inspired flair. Craicdown incorporates musical influences from many parts of the world and various genres with rare instrumentation.
The band’s repertoire includes both songs and instrumental pieces ranging in genre from Americana and reggae vocals, to Celtic jigs and reels and the music of Brazil and Argentina.

Quite so!
This light-hearted video shines an important spotlight on what’s been happening in NC.
Thanks for you timely and accurate review of “Man to Man”. It is our intent to get the message out to the world that North Carolina is under attack by a group of people that represent wealthy corporate benefactors that are deliberate in squeezing the middle class and the less fortunate among us. They also are doing a good job of suppressing the vote in every way that they can. This is overt play for power. It is done with a reggae vibe that is in the spirit of Bob Marley’s commentary on the condition of his people. Please continue to support world music with a message~!
