Craig Baumann, born and raised in Oconomowoc, WI in 1982, embarked on his musical journey early, learning guitar and drums by age 8 and performing gigs by age 12. His musical upbringing was steeped in blues, heavily influenced by his grandfather's vintage country music and the soulful grooves of Stax and Motown.

Throughout his career, Craig has embraced a philosophy that transcends genres, believing in music's power to tell stories and connect people beyond boundaries. This ethos drives his diverse musical projects, from performances with The People Brothers Band and Craig Baumann and The Story, to managing OutPost Music Store, a full-service family-owned music store in downtown Waukesha, WI. He also dedicates his efforts to the non-profit organization Jam for Jam.

In addition to his musical pursuits, Craig balances community leadership with artistic expression, exemplified by his roles in The Smokin’ Bandits, solo and duo performances, and the occasional appearance with Fat Maw Rooney. Look forward to Craig's upcoming projects, including a new Fat Maw Rooney album in the pipeline.
