Phone off... lights out... lie on the floor... eyes closed... volume up. This is no tired cliché-train chugging along the same old worn-out track, but a sonic journey twisting through an ever-changing landscape of sounds, thoughts, and atmospheres.

Songwriter Kirk Gramcko, having traveled all over the musical landscape for years, has returned home, bringing with him a gig bag filled with 10 original songs for his new CD âBigger Than Me.â

Energetic and engaging, this CD strikes an ideal balance over a range of styles and moods, from high energy rock & roll (âGimme Moreâ), to melodic lyrical laments (âWhatâs the Matter With Meâ and âTears Wonât Comeâ), to selections that fall into those hard-to-pin-down genres.

Just listen to the title track, âBigger Than Me,â with its surreal sonic reverberations, mystical lyrics, and panoramic images. Contrast that with âNineteenâ which combines a frenzied, driving pulse with a haunting, achy feel. The collection on this CD is no tired cliché-train chugging along the same old worn-out track, but rather a sonic journey twisting through an ever-changing landscape of sounds, thoughts, and atmospheres.

Speaking about the art of songwriting, Kirk commented, âIt starts with a guitar on my knee...for me, the music always comes first. As it evolves, a phrase or rhythmic element will start to grab and take hold. Then, as I play with it, the music begins to evoke images and feelings which lead me to where the lyrics are hiding.â
