Craig is an accomplished vocalist and guitarist. He covers a diverse range of well-known songs in his own style. Whether Solo, with acoustic guitar, or with his band, He will be enjoying the music as much as you.
I have a wealth of experience having played music for many years in bands, duos and solo. From way back in the 90s in Auckland; at Candyos With Khan, The Scanners. To more recently, mostly in Northland; With Solo gigs , Double Shot, Craig Cave & The Bad Excuse.
And Currently The Craig Cave Band Back in Auckland.
When playing solo, I dont use any backing tracks, everything you hear is played live. I cover a range of tunes, from fingerstyle guitar easy listening, to more energetic sing-along type of stuff. I love to interact with an audience.
The Band is a tight three piece. Covering songs with lots of energy and lots of fun. Funk-Rock is probably the bands forte; the repertoire is diverse; we love making it groove.
