More about Craig:"Born and raised on Long Island during a period when most kids were listening to glamour rock itâs hard to believe that Craig could have been pushed in the direction to perform Bluegrass and Country music. He taught himself to play on his fatherâs cheap, old, nylon string classical (which he still has). It was when he was forced to join the school choir by his best friend that he was set on the course to performing. Campfire type sing alongs taught him a lot of the old folk tunes that he still holds among his influences. Playing these songs also taught him the value of sharing music.
During the "Urban Cowboy" period when everyone wanted to ride a mechanical bull, Craigâs parentâs owned a...Expand for more
small country bar that boasted live music on weekends. Hanging out and watching the performers he was inspired and became more familiar with the trade. Finally, one night, Tom Russel and Andrew Hardin convinced his parents to let him get up and play a few songs with them. The bug bit hardâ¦.
With influences from Hank Williams to John Denver to Crosby Stills and Nash, Craig began writing and performing folk music with a country flavor. In 1989, when he graduated college, he had had enough of New York and relocated to Boulder, Colorado. The diverse music scene in Boulder caught his attention immediately and Bluegrass became a new area to explore.
In 1997, Craig released his first full length CD, Sawmill Town, featuring all original music. His early influences of folk, country and bluegrass were married and produced smooth vocals and harmonies . Currently he performs as a solo
singer/songwriter and does a number of cover tune shows where he performs country, pop & rock tunes from the 60's, 70's, 80's and more, Though not fully touring he has played across the western United States. He is currently producing a second project, OK Down Here, to be released in the coming summer".
