Craig Lyons is a distinct and passionate singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and composer. Having released three self-recorded, self-produced solo albums during a period of artistic solitude on the shores of his native Lake Erie, Craig has exploded into LA's independent music scene with the release of his fourth album, 'On Reflection'.

A quiet small-town guy bringing heart back to a cynical music landscape, Craig brings intimate acoustic sublimity to his live electric rock show. His band performs regularly at LA's most distinguished venues including The Viper Room, Key Club, and the House of Blues.

Quickly recognizing the talent of this new artist, Craig’s music has been licensed by Universal Music, Fox and MTV, and heard on shows such as 'So You Think You Can Dance' and 'The Real World'. Craig has been nominated for the LA Music Awards 2 consecutive years and swept 2008's Star Music Awards, taking home top honors 'Artist of the Year' and 'Singer/Songwriter of the Year'. Craig has appeared in Music Connection Magazine and can be heard on FM radio (including ClearChannel), independent radio (including WOXY), and college radio (including 92WICB, MTV-U best station 2008).

A fervent social activist and volunteer, Craig is featured on the ambitious charity 'Feed333' album, has organized his own benefit performances for Shriner's Hospital pediatric burn victims, volunteers as a mentor for musically gifted special-needs children, and is committed to personal and professional environmental responsibility.

Craig's first collaborative effort, 'On Reflection', features his dedicated band, a live Hollywood string orchestra, Grammy-winning mixer Rob Hoffman (Christina Aguilera, Michael Jackson), and multi-platinum mastering engineer Patricia Sullivan Fourstar (Paul McCartney, U2). With FOX TV airtime in the week of its launch, this work represents Craig's finest work to date and is thrusting him into the next tier of his already flourishing career.
