Craig is an extremely talented and professional musician. He was so kind and willing to take all kinds of requests from my family and friends. I only hope I have another event that I can book him. I would highly recommend Craig to anyone for any event.

Craig was a great addition to our event. He is professional and polished, a great look for any event. He knows how to take the spotlight when needed or fall back into the background if the mood dictates. We look forward to working with him again in the future. You can't go wrong with him as your choice.
