John Craigie has mastered the art of creating live shows that feel more like intimate conversations than performances. Infusing humor, wit, and poignant storytelling, his shows are a space where audience members feel like old friends. Whether he's headlining solo or sharing the stage with longtime collaborators, Craigie's ability to make his crowd laugh, reflect, and connect is second to none. As he prepares to release Greatest Hits... Just Kidding... Live - No Hits, his latest live album captures the warmth and spontaneity of these memorable nights.
As a tried-and-true performer, he has regularly sold out solo tours in addition to hitting the road with the likes of Langhorne Slim, Brett Dennen, Mason Jennings, Bella White and Jack Johnson.
Simultaneously, his catalog has continued to reel in tens of millions of streams fueled by favorites such as "I Am California," & "Highway Blood." Maintaining a prolific pace, 2024's Pagan Church saw him join forces with TK & The Holy Know-Nothings. Among many highlights, it logged six weeks at #1 on the Americana Radio Albums Chart. Inciting critical applause, Pop Matters raved, "All of Craigie's songs are made of something truly ineffable," and American Highways assured, "Along with excellent musicianship across the album, there are genuinely pretty moments on 'Pagan Church."
Ultimately, Craigie's story continues with more shows and music.
