About Craig Cummings
Craig was born in Mercy Hospital on St. Paul St. in Baltimore City and raised on the west side of town. Mom and Dad were working class types who raised him in a row house sans the marble steps found on many of the homes in the more central parts of the city. Although he currently lives outside of the city limits, he considers himself a true Baltimorean - for better or worse. Craig's first gigs were at teen centers and private parties but he quickly progressed to coffee houses and larger venues and he ventured out into the live performance scene and picked up with some older musicians who appreciated his vocal skills and his tendency to treat every rehearsal as if it were a gig in front of a thousand fans. Craig's musical road trip began with folk music performances, accelerated to writing country-rock anthems, detoured to blue-eyed soul, and finally took a dirt road home in 2007, when he set out to create his own niche in Americana music. Craig's 2009 release, Road Trips and Relationships, allows listeners to share the experiences of a Baltimore-born singer-songwriter who has never cared to forsake his mid-Atlantic roots for the opportunities that might have been provided by other venues in other places. Craig is a member of the Baltimore Songwriter's Association (BSA), The Songwriter's Association of Washington (SAW), and the Washington Area Music Association (WAMA). He has a large and loyal following of listeners in the Baltimore/Washington area. Nashville and Austin call his name in the night, but Baltimore owns his heart.
