Craig C - With engaging lyrical flows and a confident stage presence, Craig C brings a unique flavor to Reggae Gospel. A 2007 Joe Higgs Music Award (JHMA) nominee for best new Artist Craig C burst on the stage in 2004 at a show titled "First Sundays Unchained" where he opened for Jamaican Gospel icon Carlene Davis. His impressive performance led critic Michael A. Edwards of the Jamaica Observer to state, in his article "Delayed Gratification: Sunday Unchained," that "He was a force to be reckoned with in the Christian DJ arena" (July, 7, 2004). This paved the way for other performances at the Genesis Gospel Festival in 2005, 2006 and 2007 as well as Fun in the Son (Crossover Jesus Party), Recharge in NY and numerous performances across Arizona and California.
