Cracker Artist Snapshot:

Started by David Lowery of Camper van Beethoven and guitarist Johnny Hickman, Cracker originally aspired to (and nearly perfected) a smart-aleck take on southern-fried rock, with songs such as "I Hate My Generation" and the straight-rocking "Teen Angst (What the World Needs Now)." They scored their biggest hit with "Low" in 1993, but since the mid '90s have gradually faded from view, and left Virgin Records in 2003. With their new anonymity, Lowery and company have matured into a band that can pen a collection of elegiac Americana on one album and pull off a set of riotous country covers on the next. They even released an effective and surprising collection of bluegrass covers of their own songs with the jam band Leftover Salmon.

Review

Entertainment Weekly (6/5/92, p.56) - "...[Lowery] is a truly great songwriter, able to combine humor, bitterness, and penetrating insight into one tuneful package...harks back to groups like Little Feat, The Band, and EXILE-era Rolling Stones..." - Rating: A
Q (5/92, p.74) - 3 Stars - Good - "...a solid, no-nonsense bar band....an acquired taste that's worth acquiring..."
