"I've been fortunate to have had the opportunity to play massive arenas in front of thousands upon thousands of people but there is something really special about these smaller, intimate shows where I'm sitting onstage with my guitar and sharing stories from my heart," said Craig. "I'm bringing out guests and we're talking and singing and telling stories about our country and God and family and all the things that are important to us."
