According to Craig, his mother listened to various types of music anywhere from Christian rock music to Michael Bolton. Being interested in music, he was a part of the school’s choir, but ended up being kicked out; perhaps partly explained as he has stated that high school just wasn’t for him and it was hard for him to stay away from trouble. Thus, Johnny left high school and having attained his G.E.D, he went on to pursue his career in the music field on a more serious level.
The first band he formed was westerHALTS, a garage band. Later on and more importantly, he joined Ghost Runner on Third. and made an EP with the band entitled ‘’Speak Your Dreams’’ which was released in 2005, and which received a positive response from critics and the audience. However, despite achieving notable success with the band, Craig left as a result of alleged drug use. As of 2016, he collaborated with the band Dance Gavin Dance and went on to release the EP entitled ‘’Whatever I Say Is Royal Ocean’’, which consisted of seven songs such as ‘’The Importance of Cocaine’’ apart from the title song. After that they worked on their first major, full length album ‘’Downtown Battle Mountain’’. Nevertheless, Johnny again left, being kicked out after the Saints and Sinners Festival in New Jersey, but he succeeded in finding another band, as he joined A Skylit Drive and after that, became a part of Emarosa, after the band lost its lead singer. Other bands he has worked with include Isles and Glaciers, with who he sang from 2008 to 2010.
Besides singing in bands, Craig has also had his solo career, which began in 2009. He released an album entitled ‘’A Dream Is a Question You Don’t Know How to Answer’’ in August that year, which consisted of 10 tracks and achieved success by peaking at number 12 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers. Subsequently, he started a tour under the name White Boys With Souls, and as of the more recent past, he has reportedly been working on a new EP, and he has set up an account on the website Indiegogo, on which his fans can donate money that would help him.
As of 2014, he has been a part of the Slaves, alongside Alex Lyman, Tai Wright and Christopher Kim, and they released ‘’Through Art We Are All Equals’’ in June 2014.
When it comes to his private life, Johnny has been accused of an internet scam, and was arrested for the possession of narcotics. In the late 2017, he began a relationship with the YouTube content creator, Taylor Nicole Dean and they are still together and reportedly very happy.
