Last night, Craig Campbell celebrated the release of his new 5-song EP Outta My Head with a party and concert from Nashville’s 12th & Porter while surrounded by family, friends, fans, and music industry peers. During his full band show, Campbell debuted music from the recently released EP as well as hits including “Family Man” and “Fish.” Bigger Picture President Michael Powers surprised Craig onstage with a plaque commemorating four consecutive charted hits with over 1 billion radio airplay audience impressions and more than half a million downloads.
About Craig Campbell: After moving from his hometown of Lyons, Georgia to Nashville in 2002 to pursue his country music dreams, American Country Awards nominee Craig Campbell quickly picked up work as a keyboardist in Luke Bryan and Tracy Byrd’s bands and was later discovered playing a regular gig at legendary Nashville honky-tonk, The Stage. The singer-songwriter has earned well-deserved praise from the country’s toughest critics for his self-titled debut album, which released in April of 2011. Campbell’s autobiographical lead single, “Family Man” was a top 15 hit followed by “Fish” which has sold a quarter of a million downloads. His current smash “Outta My Head” is the title track to his recently released 5-song EP and the lead single from his sophomore album, set to release on the Bigger Picture early next year.
