Drawing on personnel experiences and original songs, as well as the poetry, literature and songs of other’s, Craig will weave a tale of appreciation and reflection.  Known for his musicianship, playful stage humor, and jewel-like original songs, Siemsen has been described as a leading midwest guitarist with a voice that is a mixture of honey and grit. His songwriting speaks to the human condition with poetry and humor.
