Craig Bickhardt's superb songwriting credits read like a "Who's Who" of the music industry. Twenty-seven years of Nashville experience started when he wrote music for the movie, "Tender Mercies," starring Robert Duvall. Others who have either recorded songs written or co-written by Craig include Ray Charles, B.B. King, Johnny Cash, The Judds, Trisha Yearwood, Allison Krauss, Anne Murray, Art Garfunkel, Poco, David Wilcox, Kathy Mattea, Willie Nelson, Van Zant, Baillie and the Boys,, Vince Gill, and Martina McBride, to name a few.
When Craig moved to Nashville, he hooked up with fellow songwriters Thom Schuyler, Fred Knobloch, and Don Schlitz to establish THE WRITERS IN THE ROUND. Their laid-back "living room" style of performing at The Bluebird Cafe became the hottest ticket in town.
"Bickhardt's vocals are soothing and reflective, the perfect vehicle for carrying his smartly crafted lyrics. His are songs of life, with intriguing character sketches and penetrating observations, of restless searching and revealing discovery."
- Jack Bernhardt, The Raleigh News and Observer
