Giants of Diving is the music of Craig Patrick
Influenced by the melodic poetry of R.E.M. and Crowded House, the social awareness of Bruce Springsteen and Steve Earle, and the big-guitar punch of The Cars and Cheap Trick, Giants of Diving is guitar-driven, synth-tinged, multi-hyphenated, indie-pop/rock.
The Giants of Diving EP, released in 2016, drew considerable blogospheric praise for “classic songwriting skill that brings to mind the likes of Brendan Benson or Dawes.” (spectralnights.com)
Music for the Soul described the first single, Separation Song, as “sumptuous and emotional power pop with sonorous synths and flawless vocals.”
The first full-length Giants of Diving album, Leave Room For Magic, was released in December 2019. The album’s first single, C Minor Requiem, was featured on a June 2019 episode of the Hometown Sounds new music podcast.
Taking a more stripped-down and quiet approach in 2020, Craig released one of his best tracks to date, Lucky, Like Me, an introspective three meditation on the power of letting go.
After a lengthy hiatus, Craig is back in the studio, working on new music for fall 2025 release!
