The Craig Vaughn Experience

Craig Vaughn is a professional, full time musician. Whether you're booking Craig as a solo artist or "The Craig Vaughn Experience" as a full band you can expect a very high level of musicianship & professionalism. Craig can play many different styles proficiently, & works with each event planner/host, to give them the exact style they're looking for at their event! He works within your budget by offering several options from a "full band" (that includes vocals, electric & acoustic guitar, bass, drums, banjo, dobro, lap steel, mandolin) to a acoustic trio, duo or solo performance! Craig always works with the client to help provide them with the exact band & sound entertainment they want at their event! He seamlessly goes from playing Bob Marley to The Eagles to Johnny Cash to Tom Petty to Ed Sheering to John Mayer to Newgrass to Van Halen without missing a lick! Below is a review from a recent event we performed at in Boone, NC.

"The Craig Vaughn Experience surpassed our expectations! We recently hosted an outdoor barn party for about 250 people and by the end just about everybody was dancing, from the young 20-somethings to the 70 and 80 year olds! Everyone commented on the great song choices and how fantastic the band sounded. They played something for everyone and many people were singing along the whole time. It was fun to watch them play together and feed off of each other's energy. They are definitely a talented group of musicians. Craig was very easy to work with, took requests, and was very considerate of our needs. He even sent us a "preview" video in the months before our event! I could see hiring just Craig for a smaller event or using the entire band for any number of occasions, not just weddings. We'd have them come play at every family gathering if we could! We would highly recommend Craig and his band to anyone looking for true talent and musicianship, especially if you want to get your group dancing!"

We play everything from The Eagles to Johnny Cash to Ed Sheering to Bob Marley...from Newgrass Revival to Jack Johnson...to Tom Petty & Journey! We are a group of award winning professional musicians/singers...(Craig has written & performed with Grammy award winners, while other band members have performed w/ Johnny Cash, Tony Rice -as with many other decorated musical luminaries!)
Without question, our absolute best attribute is connecting w/ the crowd & custom building the set list specifically according to what the host & the audience enjoys listening to most!

We have a BOSE professional sound system that is available for us to bring to any event that is within driving distance. If we are flying to perform for you we ask the host to provide us with a small sound system.
