Craig Bickhardt
Singer-Songwriter, Americana, and Folk/Traditional

Craig Bickhardt is a singer-songwriter of the old school- you’ll hear echoes of 60s folk revivalists Tom Rush, Gordon Lightfoot and Eric Andersen in his work along with the melodic grace of a Paul Simon or a Jimmy Webb. His virtuosic guitar playing interweaves folk, blues and ragtime influences. Craig’s musical vagabondage began when he discovered an old guitar in the family attic at the age of 14 and taught himself to play. Soon he was writing songs and performing at Philadelphia’s famed Main Point Coffeehouse. Since then, his career has been a continuing dialogue with his six-string, a dialectic with his dreams, a reckoning with memory. His songs are human portraits painted with a sense of wonder and clear-eyed grace; superbly rendered miniature studies that achieve a deeper resonance with sharp-drawn images and indelible hooks. They have been covered by numerous artists including Ray Charles, B.B. King, Johnny Cash and the Highwaymen, Kathy Mattea, Martina McBride and Alison Krauss.
