About Craig Campbell:  In a world fueled by the smoke and mirrors act of overnight success, Campbell has long been admired for his patience and persistence on the road less traveled. A consistent balancing act of traditional values and modern industry trends, Campbell is also considered by many to be one of the most talented yet under the radar stars, across all genres. The Lyons, Georgia native grew up playing his mother’s piano and singing in church, took a job as a corrections officer in his hometown after high school, and moved to Nashville to pursue his music dreams in 2002.

He spent the next several years paying his dues as a demo singer by day and Lower Broadway gigger by night. He connected with fellow South Georgia native Luke Bryan and started touring as his keyboard player. A year and a half long keyboard stint with Tracy Byrd soon followed, and he took over as bandleader down at The Stage on Tuesday nights on his non-touring days. His smooth chops and hot-blooded stage presence caught the eye of industry execs and in 2009, Campbell signed his first record deal.

His debut single, “Family Man,” hit the Billboard top 15 in 2011. “Outta My Head” cracked the Top 15, and catchy tune “Fish” garnered more than 10 million on-demand streams. His 2014 breakout hit “Keep Them Kisses Comin’” was on its way up the charts when Campbell got the unexpected news that his label had closed. He and his devoted team continued to press radio stations around the country, so much so that the single ended an impressive run well inside the Top 10, which is unheard of for a song with no financial backing.

A deal with Red Bow Records, a division of the Broken Bow umbrella, yielded the top 40 “Tomorrow Tonight” followed in 2018 by his most poignant and well-known work to date, “Outskirts of Heaven.” 

He launched Grindstone Recordings in 2020 and has been busy recording and releasing his own music as well as signing other artists to his label. In the last two years he released The Lost Files: Exhibit A & B, Class of ’89 and Almost Greatest Hits albums.

Craig and his wife Mindy accomplished a longtime dream of opening Grindstone Cowboy in their hometown of Eagleville, Tennessee in 2022. The coffee shop, restaurant and music venue has become a popular gathering spot for locals and visitors alike and was featured on Tennessee Crossroads. A second location is currently in the works in Shelbyville, Tennessee.

Craig formed the Kenny Campbell Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded by Craig to honor his father who lost his battle with Colorectal Cancer at age 36. He has raised over one million dollars for various colorectal and colon cancer organizations.

His 11th Annual Craig Campbell Celebrity Cornhole Challenge raised over $30,000 for the Kenny Campbell Foundation this week, and he recently announced the inaugural Kenny Campbell Foundation Presents a Benefit Concert Featuring Craig Campbell & Bradley Gaskin at the Ryman Auditorium on July 24, 2025. The exciting event will also include performances by Tyler Farr, Michael Ray, Bryan White, and Hailey Benedict. Tickets are currently available HERE.
