The last featured artist of the year on my show is Mr Craig Eddie, and he is probably one of the most extraordinary I’ve had on the show.
Well, Craig and his family that is. They set out on Thursday morning for an 11 hour journey to play on my little show? I mean, hats off to them, that is dedication of the highest order.
Craig Eddie was brilliant, I thoroughly enjoyed him on the show, he played a range of covers and originals and with his debut EP he looks to record come next year, he is one to take note of.

Craig also participated in 50 Grades Smarter, I was pretty lenient with his mum helping (in other words – telling him the answers which led to some amazing sharades actions in the background trying to help him). He scored a decent score of 11 out of 15. Not good enough for the final on the 15th December, which will save his mum a lot of money on petrol.
