Phil Collen (Def Leppard) says of his relationship with Craig:
"I first met Craig at the Joe Satriani G4 guitar camp in Monterey, California, in 2017. After playing with him onstage, I realized that — apart from being an outrageously amazing bass player — Craig could actually sing as he was doing backup vocals with me when we played “Hysteria.“
We traded numbers; and the following year, when I was about to embark on the G3 tour, I gave Craig a call. On my set, which was mainly Delta Deep songs (my heavy blues band), I do a lot of singing. Since it was winter, my voice went out, so Craig took over my vocal duties. It started becoming apparent that Craig is actually a natural lead singer, but had never followed up on it.
I’m really glad I met Craig and became part of his musical present and future. He’s got incredible things on the horizon, and I’m excited to see it all come to fruition."
