CRAIG CHADWELL: BARITONE/BASS

​Craig has been a pillar of Music Men & Jen since 1998, when he stepped in to replace Del Spalsbury—originally singing Tenor, despite being a Bass “in real life.” After years of hitting the high notes, he moved to the Baritone/Bass part in 2006, where he’s been anchoring the group’s sound ever since. A London native, Craig comes from a well-known local family—the gymnasium at London High School even bears his father’s name. He now lives in Blacklick with his husband, Mike. He has three grown children — and one amazing daughter-in-law who make him proud (since he's already pulled out his hair through their teenage years): Breanna, Dominic and his wife Nikki (who are expecting Craig and Mike’s first grandbaby in January 2026), and Cassady. At home, Craig is lovingly managed by his trio of energetic Australian Shepherds. By day, he's semi-retired and is figuring out what to do with Craig 2.0. By night (and weekends), he brings heart, humor, and harmony to Music Men & Jen.
