Craig Ferguson

A collection of 12 works composed strictly for solo guitar, Craig Ferguson's debut album "Nobody But The Moon And Me" is a statement of simplicity. Composed with nothing but a pencil and paper and recorded live with no overdubs, these instrumental tracks are the result of a broad range of influences. From styles like jazz, blues, and country to guitarists such as Bill Frisell, John Fahey, and Joe Pass Craig brings it all together on "Nobody But The Moon And Me". Standout tracks include, "Good Luck For Hard Times", "Soul Patch", and "Walkin' The Dog". Highly recommended if you're a fan of peaceful solo guitar music.

Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, Craig has performed as the guitarist and dobro player for alt- bluegrass band Cliff Wagner & The Old #7. The Old #7 were recently featured on national television in the FOX premier of The Next Great American Band where they placed seventh out of over 6,000 video submissions. Prior to the show, The Old #7 toured throughout the SW, at festivals such as The Colorado River Bluegrass Festival, Parker, and Yuma bluegrass festivals.

Craig is also known for his eclectic studio work including the Nintendo Wii video game release Balls of Fury as well as the TV shows Cold Case, Close to Home, and films such as, Disfigured, And So Life Goes On, and Sticks and Stones.
