Craig is a really talented pianist and vocalist that we've been using for the holiday season for the last 3 years. He's both a nice a funny guy that can an elevate a festive mood with this comprehensive knowledge of holiday, classical and contemporary music. I've seen him get a room full of people, who usually don't sing, sing along and have a really fun time. He also brings his own sheet music, but knows a lot of songs by memory and is quick to take requests. I recommend him for any classy affair, not just for the holiday season. Thanks again Craig!
