Craig started as a drummer at the age of 4 (his father, who worked as a nationally recognized radio DJ, was also a drummer). By the time he was 8 he had picked up the guitar and was writing songs and playing clubs and auditoriums by age 13.
Now, between his remixes and productions, his other solo-projects cell:burn, jido-genshi, StarDotStar and the mysterious Broken Heart Robot as well as his film score projects, Craig has become one of the most sought after composers and producers in Los Angeles.
