Mike Craig

At an early age, Mike studied guitar with bay area greats, Sydney Gelb and Tony Baker and continued for many years. He worked for the well known Californian music store, “Gelb Music” located in the SF Bay Area. An amazing time where people like Joe Satriani, Robin Ford, Steve Morse, Tuck Andress, Jerry Garcia, Dennis Chambers, Kenny Arnoff, Gregg Bissonette, Todd Sucherman, Paul Reed Smith, John Good, and many other top musicians and industry leaders came through the door. He founded the hard rock band “Jaded Rain” in the 90’s which did very well with continued radio play, MTV videos and headlining many bay area venues. He continued to work on multiple projects, including one project where he co-wrote two NCSA award winning songs.

In the early 2000’s, during one of his projects he met and worked with 10Til2’s bassist Jeff Payne. The two would later start LoveKraft, an original hard rock band, bringing in 10Til2’s vocalist Scott Kusayanagi. Shortly after, Mike joined 10Til2 covering lead guitar.

Today – Mike is active in a few projects outside of 10Til2, working with local bay area artists and in the band “Balance”. Mike’s all about playing music – LIVE MUSIC – LET’S GO!
