My Vision!

Greetings everyone so I’m writing this to first say thank you to everyone who has donated or invested so far towards my vision since I reached out, I really appreciate it! I made a post Tuesday night and since then I’ve received a lot of support and encouragement and people have been donating/investing and I’m definitely off to a great start of my fundraising towards my vision! I was thinking yesterday and realized that I didn’t really explain more in depth about what exactly my vision was and what all it entails so I thought I would write this to kind of help explain it. But first let me give you a little backstory.

September of last year I put together my very first show, for my birthday, on my own and it was very successful. One thing that I kept hearing repeatedly from those in attendance that day was how Im not fully maximizing on Craig Bailey & Friends and how Im just scratching the surface on its potential. That really resonated with me and I sat with that and started to brainstorm on how I can maximize it and take it to the next level, and thats when my vision came to me!

THE VISION!!!

My vision for Craig Bailey & Friends consists of three main areas and without letting too much out I’ll share briefly the three main parts! The first part is going to focus on video content, and this will be done in three phases (the first phase I started a couple of weeks ago and will be showing that soon). The purpose of this is for me to get some ideas and concepts that I have out of my head, in video format to share with the rest of the world! These ideas are a collection of various covers, originals and alot of cover mashups/medley ideas I’ve had just sitting or stashed in the archives that I never got a chance to do. One example is a Beyonce medley that I made for an artist for a show they were planning and changed the direction of the show after and we never got a chance to do it. A second example is I also have a whole Rihanna medley that I put together and haven’t had a chance to do either. If you have been to any of my shows or shows Ive helped build and put together, then you know how crazy my outros and medleys are lol. With these different ideas I already have most of it mapped out of who I would like to sing and perform these songs I just need to put it together and put it out there!

* The second main part of my vision is the continuation of my shows, but they will consist of different themes that Ive been wanting to do and try out. Each one will be a different experience that I feel will be refreshing to see and be a part of. I’ll share and show more on this when time.

* The third main part will be original music, yes thats right there will be a series of Craig Bailey & Friends Albums! You read that right, yes, Im going to be producing and recording my own original music! This is something Im most excited about because Ive been wanting to record my own music for a while but recording is not something Im too experienced in and I didnt know where to start, but now I have a solid game plan and blueprint in place to get it done!

Ive given you guys a small glimpse and look into the massive vision Ive been given and trust and believe there’s a plan in place on how I’ll start locally and very soon take it GLOBALLY! My mission and current purpose is to help and leave an impact on others and the world through music and service through music and this vision will allow me to do just that! I’ll be able to hire and provide opportunities to countless, musicians, artists, vocalists, producers, engineers, studios, photographers, videographers, etc. Because of the size of this vision and all of the different parts Ive already started building a team of different professionals here in Nashville and some outside of Nashville to help me organize and facilitate this and we’ve got some great things already about to come into fruition. As you donate and invest in my vision you’re not only investing in me but you’re also investing in other creatives and entrepreneurs and their careers as well, so thank you in advance for being apart of my journey and vision!
