The international music scene, like a menu of infinite pancake choices, can overwhelm you with its endless, dubious promises of fulfillment. Seedling Records recording artist A.J. Croce knows how you feel. He doesnt want you to fill up on empty carbs or predictable music. A.J.--considered one of our greatest young songwriters by David Wild of Rolling Stone--wants your ears satisfied, like they just ate the best pancakes ears ever ate, and with his tasty singing, songwriting, and musicianship, A.J. delivers.

I know what youre wondering: can A.J.s music be categorized as easily as it can be digested? Consider this: each of A.Js five CDs has hit the radio charts in a different genre. His debut, A.J. Croce entered the top ten U.S. jazz chart in 1993; the follow up Thats Me in The Bar landed again in the top ten in 1995, but this time in the Americana and Blues chart; Subsequently, 1998s Fit to Serve placed again on the blues chart, but also on the AAA chart, and 2000s Transit garnered a spot again on AAA and also the American college radio chart. His single Dont Let Me Down, from his 2005 CD Adrian James Croce is the only song by an artist on an independent label to hit the US top 40 charts in 2005; and three of his songs remained in the European radio top twenty for six months straight during 2005.

Such diverse acceptance cannot be aimed for: AJ makes music he loves, grounded in his wide range of influences, and lets the chips hit the fan, confident, as he says, that an eclectic taste in music, is the foundation of versatility. This eclecticism has gained A.J. a reputation as a one man music festival, wholl pull an old barrelhouse boogie woogie stride piano jam out of one sleeve, a psychedelic pop gem or New Orleans funk groove out of the other. Imagine an American roadhouse nightclub on a warm summer night, poised between city and country, where folks of all ages and backgrounds come to dance, listen, drink, and occasionally start a romance or fistfight; AJ would go over in there. You would buy him a beer.
