Craig Jackson is not only a composer/engineer/musician/audio engineer, but an award-winning video producer on MCA/Universal ("Journey into Space") and the inventor of "The Thumb Bar Controller" for keyboards.
Craig was very professional and played a good variety of songs. This was the second time I have used him and hope to hire him again in the future.
Craig is an outstanding entertainer. Highly recommend him! Loved his voice. You will not be sorry if you hire Craig.
Craig provided a fine playlist and lovely music for our New Years Eve 2018 party. Everyone enjoyed the dinner, Jazz music & dance music. Many people commented how much they loved him and some gave tips to show their gratitude. We would book him again for sure. He came early and stayed a little past the contract time because people were dancing so well. We of course paid him extra for his time.
I was pleasantly surprised with Craig. He arrived early and was set up and ready to play when guests started to arrive. He was very professional and only took a few breaks. He play a wide variety of music for all genres. Everyone was up dancing and they told me they enjoyed the music. Would definitely use him again and would recommend him highly.
