Craig has written well over fifty songs and recently took 2nd place at the annual KSM Songwriter’s Contest. He was also a two-time finalist at the prestigious Red Lodge Songwriter’s Festival. His songwriting features solo acoustic guitar instrumentals as well as lighthearted and humorous tales of growing up along with serious slice-of-life ballads. As an accomplished storyteller and humorist, Craig’s performances are liberally sprinkled with stories that accompany his songs, including hating broccoli as a child, being attacked by mosquitoes at scout camp, finding true love and saying goodbye as his mother languished in a care center.

A consummate entertainer and storyteller, Craig will have your audience completely captivated for the entire evening.
