Originally from Burgeo/Francois Newfoundland, Craig began playing the guitar and singing at the age of seven. He moved to the province of Alberta, in 1990, performing both as a sideman for many artists including Jason McCoy, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, George Canyon, Patricia Conroy and as a solo country artist. The multiple CCMA (Canadian Country Music Association) Guitar Award winner moved to Nashville TN in 2000, where he worked as a sideman for Patti Loveless, Ricky Skaggs, Anita Cochrane, Shelly Wright, and Canadian Superstar Terri Clark for 8 years, and recorded two albums, The History Of Me, and Tracks with Canadian Country singer Amanda Adelle. In 2008, he moved back to Newfoundland, and performs as a solo artist, and teaches guitar, as well as record projects for other artists in his home studio. His newest album, released in August 2010, is titled Back Home, and brings together country and bluegrass music with the traditional music of Newfoundland.
