We are a family production company. Our immediate family include my wife Mariddie J. Craig, our three sons Dustinn, Nephi and Shiloh. Two of our sons have their own families and we also have many other extended family who are all equally appreciated.
Vincent Craig was born June 6, 1950 in Crownpoint NM to Bob and Nancy Craig. Between the ages of 5-7, my Mom supplementd our income by sewing, and she would always ask me to sing to her. My favorite singer at the time was Johnny Horton, and I would do an entire repertioure from memory. I especially liked to sing in church, and would try to harmonize with other singers. I have three sons; Dustinn; Nephi; and Shiloh. They all have a special place in my heart, equally. Between the years of 7-11, I lived at the "Indian Village" near Church Rock NM. There I met one of my greatest influences in life, my 4th and 5th grade teacher Andy Prather. Our class published "THE CHURCHROCK EXPRESS", put on a Christmas puppet show about "Randolph The Red Nosed Moose", explored and found 4 of the fabled "7 Cities of Gold", learned Swiss Style Rappelling, and so many other intriguing things. In the summer following the 5th grade, my family sent me on the LDS Placement Program. I stayed 7 wonderful years with Melvin and Nelda Cook in Torey, Utah. I will never be able to repay them for their input into my spiritual realm. During this phase my musical influences were still Johnny Horton, Waylon Jennings, Don Williams etc. On the other side, my 60's influences were The Animals, Beatles, Neil Diamond, Yardbirds, Bob Dylan, The Smothers Brothers, etc. I joined the Marines in July 1969 and was honorably discharged in June 1973. While stationed in Ohau Hawaii, I met a beautiful young lady named Mariddie Ann Johnson who was a student at the Church College of Hawaii (Presently BYU Hawaii). Thus I finally found my "Muse". I have been blessed.

Just dropping by to say hello. We will see you on Saturday night at the Radisson here in Phoenix! Can't wait. I've never been to your show but I've always wanted to go. You're like our Native Super Hero! When things aren't looking so good... you speak tell your jokes and ease our minds and hearts. God Bless you.
My first introduction to you was at our annual family reunion in Sawmill, Az, when my relatives would play your music. I never laughed so hard. Your songs hit the nail on the head about the description of living on the Rez. I never seen your face until we bought the movie, Turquoise Rose, on DVD. I never would have known that was you until I watched the special feature and heard Natasha Kaye Johnson talk about how intimidated she was by you in the commentator section. Nice acting - you're a natural. Hope I hear from you. Leave a comment if you can. Keep up the good work. God bless you with safety, peace of mind and good health. Your fan, Beclabito Barton
Thanks, that means alot coming from you. My mom and I were at the DC show, and bought some cd's..you seemed busy signing them, etc and I didn't want to disturb you.
For recording, I just use my laptop, and little computer mic. I have a free recording program, Audacity, and another, Magix MusicMaker that I use. I'll just record a song in the bathtub...has the best acoustics in the house hah =) -Selena
