Introduction
Craig Mecham has spent more than five decades playing and performing on a variety of keyboard and stringed instruments. Over the years he has played and sang on stages in England, Utah, Idaho, California, Arizona, Wyoming, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Washington State. Early in his musical career, his band "The Family Album" did an extended tour of England doing 350 shows in 13 months. He has performed for British Royalty, the Mayor of London, various elected officials, religious leaders, large and small businesses, corporations, private parties, and countless 4th graders. Craig has written well over fifty songs and recently took 2nd place at the annual KSM Songwriter’s Contest. He was also a two-time finalist at the prestigious Red Lodge Songwriter’s Festival. And has been a 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 nominee for Male Artist of the Year at HUGS 24/7 Radio. His song "I'm Still Here" has been nominated for "Song of the Year 2024" and his recently released album "Now It's 2:00 Am" has been nominated for "Album of the Year 2024". His songwriting features solo acoustic guitar instrumentals as well as lighthearted and humorous tales of growing up along with serious slice-of-life ballads. As an accomplished storyteller and humorist, Craig’s performances are liberally sprinkled with stories that accompany his songs, including hating broccoli as a child, being attacked by mosquitoes at scout camp, finding true love and saying goodbye as his mother languished in a care center. His ability to weave music and lyrics into a very personal experience will have you roaring with laughter one minute and quietly dabbing your eyes the next. A consummate entertainer and storyteller, Craig will have your audience completely captivated for the entire evening.

For our 42nd Anniversary, my wife, Kelly and I had the great fortune, privilege and blessing of having Craig Mecham and his wife Tammy join us in our living room to listen to Craig serenade us with two of our favorite and unforgettable songs; When I Look into Your Eyes, by Firehouse, and Make You Feel My Love by Garth Brooks. I can't thank you enough for helping to turn our anniversary into one of the most memorable days of our entire marriage. You made it so, Craig Mecham Music, my new favorite artist and we thank you.
