Craig Campbell is the kind of country artist you don’t just listen to—you believe in. A proud son of Lyons, Georgia, Craig’s music is steeped in the spirit of ‘90s country and shaped by his deep Southern roots. Influenced by legends like Travis Tritt and Randy Travis, he’s built a career the old-fashioned way: through relentless hustle, undeniable talent, and unwavering authenticity. From demo vocals by day to Lower Broadway gigs by night, Campbell honed his craft long before signing his first record deal. And while his journey to the spotlight hasn’t always followed the fast track, it’s been one hell of a ride—marked by grit, grace, and a catalog of songs that feel like home.
After cutting his teeth as a keyboardist for Tracy Byrd and his longtime friend Luke Bryan, Campbell broke through as a solo artist in 2011 with the heart-tugging hit “Family Man.” Songs like “Outta My Head,” “Fish,” and the Top 10 smash “Keep Them Kisses Comin’” cemented his status as one of country’s most compelling voices—offering up a mix of tenderness, twang, and toe-tapping charm. But when his label shuttered mid-hit, Campbell didn’t back down. Instead, he pressed on, proving that staying true to yourself matters more than chasing the latest trend.
Campbell’s signature ballad “Outskirts of Heaven” brought fans even closer to the man behind the music, showcasing his faith and emotional depth. The song’s resonance led to appearances on national television, NFL halftime shows, and a longstanding relationship with the Grand Ole Opry—where he has graced the stage more than 50 times. And in 2017, he returned to the road alongside Luke Bryan for the chart-topping Huntin’, Fishin’, and Lovin’ Every Day Tour, performing for massive audiences that embraced Campbell’s down-home charm and timeless sound.
Now releasing music on his own terms, Craig Campbell is ushering in a bold new chapter with “It’s About Time”—his first independent single and a deeply personal project he co-produced, played, and sang with everything he’s got. For fans of real-deal country—the kind with steel guitars, piano-driven ballads, and stories that stick—Campbell is the artist you’ve been waiting for. It’s not just about time. It’s about heart, soul, and a lifelong love for country music that refuses to fade.
