Notes

Marty wrote this about the project in his blog on March 10, 2023:

I'm happy to announce the release of Blueburst's debut single Vanish. Blueburst is the project of sessioneer/songwriter/singer/guitar player Craig Douglas Miller who lives in Atlanta, Georgia and has kindly invited me to contribute with guitars, production, and ideas. Craig was originally the singer in the band The Reach and made two albums under that name, Closer in 1995 and Lift in 2003. This belting, melodic indie guitar-driven track is getting some good reviews from those in the know, haha. You can listen on Bandcamp and read the reviews on the links [Review at "Review Fix"].

Notes

Marty wrote about this single in his blog on April 17, 2023:

Happy to announce today: the second single Supernova from sessioneer Craig Douglas Miller's project Blueburst. I went to Atlanta to play guitar on this and other tracks and Supernova follows the first single Vanish which you can also listen to here. Lots of positive reviews and I know there's too much music out there to listen to everything but if you like some upbeat indie guitar-oriented, melodic music then you'll like this.
