Biography
Craig is a full-time professional musician, specialising in the piano.
After spending four years studying at the Paul McCartney fame school, he left with a degree and went straight into performing at weddings and events.
Since then Craig has literally played thousands of events and has been fortunate enough to be asked to tour annually with The Four Tops, The Temptations, The Three Degrees, Tavares, Freda Payne and The platters to name a few. If you have seen any of these acts at the O2 arena or any of the other large stadiums in the country, then you probably have already met Craig (although from a distance).
Craig has many different options for your wedding or event which cover everything from solo piano, right up to a full band with DJ service. A few regularly chosen options are outlined here:
- Solo Piano
- Piano with Vocals
- Piano Duo with your choice of Upright Bass, Saxophone, Jazz guitar, Drums, Female vocals, Percussion
- Various band options from 3 piece upwards (including Jazz/Swing, Pop/Classics, RnB/Soul/Motown, Dance/House, Retro/Vintage)
Craig specialises in tailoring your options exactly to your requirements and theme. This comes from a vast experience in weddings and events. Craig is also the musical director for the large Christmas events at Tatton Park, Aintree Racecourse and the ICC Birmingham so you may have experienced his work at these venues already.
Whatever ideas you have Craig will promise to come up with a musical solution to create your perfect day/evening.

Reviews / Testimonials
Daniel Wainwright, Gin Tastic Festival, Festival Event, Yorkshire)"Perfect, customers just loved them. We wanted that style of music and they delivered 110%"
National Caravan Rally"Craig played a huge part in the success of out first National Caravan Rally hosted at a 5* venue and didn't let us down. His professionalism and organisation made the whole event very relaxed and reassured us of how things would play out. Everything was tailored to the audience and the style of play adapted as the night progressed. If you want somebody with vast music knowledge and a real crowd pleaser, then Craig is the man. We have already re booked him for several other dates this year and look forward to seeing him soon. A+++"
Kirsty johnson, Wedding"Craig played a Great set at our wedding reception. Played a wide variety of songs and took a couple of requests. Perfect background music during the champagne reception."
Andrew Mackie, Wedding"Craig is clearly very talented, playing fantastically at our wedding and really making it a joy for everyone. He listened and advised prior to the wedding, learnt a song especially for our first dance, and is very professional, easy going and was a pleasure to be with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Craig, and we have to pass on lots of compliments from our guests. Thank you."
