Artist Biography Available in: "Craig D'Andrea" is one of the younger faces you will find on the acoustic guitar scene but he isn't playing like he's 24 years old. Craig has been receiving support from fans and critics alike since releasing his debut album Crazy is Catching on CandyRat Records in March of 2007. The release of his album, along with his title of 2007 Canadian Fingerstyle Champion, has given him the chance to tour in the United States and Canada.
Craig's first experience with an instrument was in the third grade when he began taking mandatory lessons at Riverside Elementary School. In October of 1999 Craig began taking guitar lessons at the local music store from a teacher named Mike Mirtsopoulos. Mike was (and is) a greatly supportive teacher who helped Craig learn guitar from the ground up. Lessons in scales, site reading, technique, creativity and how to set personal goals. The hardwork had finally started to payoff and in late 2007 and 2008 Craig was invited to tour with respected artists such as Andy McKee, Don Ross, Antoine Dufour, and Peter Ciluzzi.
