Craig Haller — Indie Folk and Alternative Songwriter, Producer, and Author
Craig Haller is a writer, musician, and quiet observer of stray moments. He lives in Nashville, where he records music, collects impressions, and writes toward the edges of language.
Music.
A catalog of indie folk and alternative songs that range from full-band records to quieter, more exploratory work. Each project reflects a different moment and a different way of finding shape in sound.
Writing.
Essays, fragments, and the book Useful Nothingness. The writing begins with observation and impulse, then evolves into pieces that stand on their own. It’s the running record of my refracted experience.
The Bonus Room.
A studio space for writing, recording, and experimenting. The room holds intricately connected instruments and gear that I pull in as needed. This is where sessions unfold, ideas get pushed around, and projects begin to take shape.
Useful Nothingness isn’t a book of poems. Or essays. Or confessions.
It’s an ambient archive.
A lyrical playground.
A bedtime story for the existentially curious.
“This book does not aim to teach or resolve. It asks questions with such patience and odd warmth that the absence of answers becomes a kind of answer itself.”
