ABOUT

Ever wanted to join a band of harmonious melodic merry men/women? Ever looked up to the classic bands like Crowded House, Steely Dan, Ryan Adams, Hall & Oates, The Beatles, Bill Withers, Del Amitri and thought "I'd love to sound like ALL of those guys at the same time?

In 2016 I supported the mighty Dan Reed(Dan Reed Network) & Danny Vaughn(Tyketoo/Waysted) on their UK "Snake Oil & Harmony" Tour where I was even honoured to play alongside them on a few songs. We all remain great friends, having known Danny Vaughn for a few years previously.

I have released two albums, three if you include the live album. The first "Songs From Life & Love", then "Live At Moorish Castle" of which you can find the live film-doc via my profile. My latest album "WhoIsThisCraig" was released earlier this year. You can find all these on itunes, spotify, soundcloud.

I have played in various bands and collaborative projects ever since I started out but in the last 6 years or so I've been going the solo/singer/songwriter path but I felt it was time to attempt to put a band of like-minded musos together to initially play stuff off my last albums but totally open to writing collaboratively in the future.
