Tony Craddock Jr.: Staycation

Jazz 91.9 WCLK | By David C. Linton
Published July 22, 2020 at 9:51 AM EDT

If ever a song’s title was appropriate for the times, Tony Craddock Jr.’s  Staycation (Cold Front Music) is it!  Tony’s saxaphone comes through clearly on this song that reflects relaxation or fun depending on your  particular mood.

Tony has created his own style and sound, not bad for guy who was inspired to play Jazz by listening to The Weather Channel. This Cornell University alumnus has created his own style, one that has allowed him to play on some of the biggest stages with some of the biggest names in Jazz. Staycation was a one listen for me and I know it’s a song the listeners of Jazz 91.9 WCLK will enjoy. 

David C. Linton is Jazz 91.9 WCLK Program Director and host of Serenade To The City, heard Monday-Friday at 10pm.
