Craig DeMelo has made a name for himself in New England and beyond as a versatile, passionate, and eclectic singer/songwriter, who can spin a ballad, paint a picture, blast out a rock song, or even freestyle. If his album, The Whiskey Poet, catches your ears, it’s his live show that catches your imagination and keeps you coming back for more.
The twenty-six year old has been playing stages from coast-to-coast since 2002. He’s been to every major club in New England, opening for such National Acts as Howie Day, Hootie and the Blowfish, Matchbox 20, the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Less than Jake, and Griffin House. He’s also had three successful tours in California in 2007, 2008, and 2009. Along the way, he's written over 80 songs.
Fans will tell you that every Craig DeMelo show is different. On any given night, Craig is liable to break into an impromptu song in whichever genre he is the mood to play. His ability to mix music together and create off the top of his head has become a staple in his live show. His lyrical spontaneity (and his love of Jack Daniel’s) caused one fan to dub him “The Whiskey Poet.”
Today, Craig is continuing to play extensively to support his debut, solo album. The 12-song disc has quickly become a fan favorite. The range of songwriting ensures that there’s something that everyone can enjoy. Ask 10 people at a show to name their favorite song and you may get 10 different answers. But while The Whiskey Poet CD is a good introduction to Craig’s smooth voice and introspective lyrics, The Whiskey Poet’s live show is what sets him apart as an artist.
