Craig Marshall

Craig Marshall is an Austin-based singer-songwriter originally from Syracuse, New York, with a catalog that spans americana, indie, country, power pop, and rock. He moved to Austin in the early 1990s, led the popular Sinatra-style jazz-swing outfit The Lucky Strikes, and later built a personally charged songwriter career praised by Guitar World for weaving rockabilly twang with rock beat. Marshall was named 2016 Songwriter of the Year by the Austin Songwriters Group; his songs have landed in film and TV and been covered by artists including The Kennedys, Charlie Faye, Trish Murphy, and Penny Jo Pullus. He releases EPs such as Break Some Rules and Smart Play via Bandcamp and craigmarshall.com, and remains active as a solo and duo act across Central Texas. The writing is melodic, emotionally direct, and rooted in decades of band and studio work. For Americana and indie-songwriter listeners, Craig Marshall is a proven Austin catalog artist with deep local credentials.
