His Funk & Soul Show became an instant cult classic, as Craig dug into his extensive and eclectic record collection to deliver smoking hot funk and soul cuts, and a whole lot more for good measure. Dropping popular bangers alongside fabulous deep cuts, his show, and latterly club nights and gigs on the same theme, became essential listening. His relentless, infectious energy and unbeatable beats make for unforgettable nights - exactly what any wedding party demands!
