Craig Bailey has worked on-the-air since 1985 and has produced and hosted "Floydian Slip" for nearly as long. With more than 1,400 episodes under his belt, he's recognized as a de facto expert on Pink Floyd.
He and his show have received attention in — or acted as a resource for — media as diverse as Billboard, VH1, The Dallas Morning News, MacFormat, Yahoo! Music, Relix, and The Ottawa Citizen.
He was featured in "Pink Floyd: Album by Album" by Martin Popoff, published in 2018; and was quoted in the book "Reinventing Pink Floyd: From Syd Barrett to The Dark Side of the Moon" by Bill Kopp. He also wrote the foreword to "Speak to Me: The Legacy of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon," edited by Russell Reising and published in 2006.
Outside the studio
Craig is co-owner of website development company Root802, an Apple fan, dog lover, part-time actor and writer.
He's the developer of Read My Play™, a free script exchange service that helps playwrights share feedback on works-in-progress.
His one-act thriller "The Mockingbird's Nest" earned him "Best Playwright" in the Pittsburgh New Works Festival; the Verna Safran Prize (Best Play) from Theatre Odyssey in Sarasota, Fla.; and a spot in the St. Louis Actor's Studio's Labute New Theater Festival in July '23. The script was also short-listed for the 2022 Kenneth Branagh Award for New Drama Writing. "Mitch Maclay Sings Just for You" won the Honegger Prize for Best One Act at the Firehouse Center for the Arts' New Works Festival. And another of his plays, "Valaise," ran outside Toronto in October '20.
A Vermont native, he's lived in the Burlington, Vt., area since '91.
