Bio
Craig was born in Guisborough, North Yorkshire and started playing the violin at the age of six. As his career developed he was discovered by record producer Pete Waterman leading to a record deal with Universal/Decca Classics and a No.1 album, in the UK Classical Charts.
Since topping the UK Classical charts, Craig has performed all over the world as a solo recording artist, and with a number of stars including Jose Carreras, Tina Turner and Sir Cliff Richard. Recent solo performances include concerts at the first ever nighttime F1 Grand Prix in Singapore, Royal Albert Hall in London with the English Chamber Orchestra, and in Dubai at the DIFC with the London Concert Orchestra.
Craig has featured on Classic FM performing his new compositions ‘Amor’ and ‘Song for Hong Kong’ for solo violin, followed by a series of concerts at the Cultural Centre with the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra. ‘Amor’ is currently broadcast on C Music TV in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East.
Currently Craig is in high demand for Concerts, Weddings, and Corporate Entertainment.
Reviews
Craig played at our wedding, and what he did was simply magical, the absolute perfect soundtrack to our ceremony.

Outstanding talent, we booked Craig for our Ceremony and Drinks with his pianist and it was magical. Dealing with Craig was very easy, he is super professional and no stone was left unturned.
On the day, he was the perfect gentleman, and performed beautifully.
