About the Artists:

Craig Lucas, a singer-songwriter from Elsies River on the Cape Flats, rose to national

prominence by winning The Voice South Africa Season 2 in 2017. Despite lacking formal

musical training, Craig captivated audiences with his deeply emotive soul and wide vocal

range. A self-taught musician, Craig describes his style as "alternative pop," aiming to

create music that resonates with misfits, outsiders, dreamers, and non-conformists like

himself.

His debut single "I Said This" shot to #1 on iTunes, and his album RESTLESS followed,

snagging a SAMA nomination for Best Pop Album. Hits like "Smother," "Hearts Exposed,"

"Antisociable," and "Happy" all went gold, and his music has racked up over 13 million

streams. Craig’s latest release, “Falling in Love”, the lead single from his upcoming project,

has already amassed over 2,000 radio spins and climbed to #1 on multiple South African

radio stations.

Craig is currently working on his most personal music yet. Fans can expect a pop-rock

rollercoaster with electric guitars, thumping drums, and Craig's powerhouse vocals

wrapped in catchy melodies. It’s tackles tough topics such as depression and substance

abuse, and even tougher topics such as his unwavering tendency to repeatedly fall for

losers who don’t deserve him! The album will blend serious topics with a humorous,

tongue-in-cheek tone, tackling themes like addiction, social media pressures, and the need

for acceptance. Musically, it will feature a pop-rock sound with electric guitars, dynamic

drums, and emotive vocals, presented in catchy, engaging melodies. It's basically therapy

you can dance to.
