Craig said: “Since its inception, I have been interested in all varieties of soul and funk music, without imposing any barriers and I am just as enthusiastic about fresh new talent as I am about the classic artists from the golden age of the 60s and 70s.”

Outside of the radio studio, Craig has played at numerous festivals such as Love Box,Park Life, Festival no 6, Wychwood Festival, and Common People. In 2016, Craig played to over 10,000 people at the world famous Arcadia and Shangri-La stage in Glastonbury.
