Artist History Craig & Kasey have been musical all their lives. But it was their meeting in 1999 that reaffirmed their lives passions and launched the partnership of the contemporary folk duo, Craig Stuart & Kasey Lloyd.At an early age, Craig found his inspiration in the music of The Beatles,while Kasey sought out her passion in musical theatre. Though their love for music and performance grew from different roots, they were driven by the sound they created together. As their partnership developed and inspiration emerged, they discovered a combined enthusiasm for songwriting and have since penned numerous songs together.These original tunes lead to the production of their debut CD, ALIVE, which was released in March, 2001. Combining folk, rock and country influences, ALIVE overflows with reflections of the beauty in life, complemented by Craig's dynamic acoustic guitar work, Kasey's soulful vocals, and the duo's trademark harmonies.Craig Stuart & Kasey Lloyd's powerful sound has made them a favorite act on the Santa Barbara music scene. They've performed at popular venues such as Soho, Dargan's Irish Pub, Cold Spring Tavern, and are a returning favorite in the RedStar Acoustic Music Series at the historic Presidio Chapel.
