Craig Bickhardt has written songs for many famous entertainers such as Johnny Cash, Kathy Mattea, and Tony Rice.  He is a master at his craft.  He is also a fabulous entertainer as well as a virtuoso on the Guitar.  He was the originator of the format "songwriters in the round" used by many folk clubs today.  Craig is a native of Philadelphia who lived in Nashville for many years and then returned to his home area where he now lives.  Dreams, heartaches and hard-earned lessons have fed his creativity.  Here is what he says about himself.


"What I need in order to begin a good song is some irritant, some experience or feeling that gets lodged inside of me until I can't be rid of it any other way. We need great patience to write great songs. We must trust to the currents and wait for the event that places in us the seed of a genuine pearl. I think of my work as a ‘Please Touch’ museum – I want my songs to be sung until they’re worn out.”
