Richard Craker

A prolific musical chameleon with a deep love for storytelling, Richard Craker’s writing and production work stretches from the pop realm to film scoring and everything in-between. Richard has travelled the world, working with various multi- Grammy Award-winning songwriters, producers and artists, and is responsible for the fastest-selling singles ever released in China from a female artist, topping the charts in over 20 countries including scoring a Billboard number one in China. He's also reached number one in the UK charts having worked on Liam Gallagher’s album, Why Me Why Not? As a multi-instrumentalist, Richard has toured with and MD’d in numerous live projects, opening arena gigs for the likes of Sting, Elton John, Bryan Adams, Incubus and McFly. For this record Richard has partnered with vocalist Stephen James AKA Joe Publick to deliver a full-length worth of hard-hitting UK punk tracks that are just as loud as they are energetic. Richard also creates genre-blurring productions under the pseudonym Tom Oaks, blending alt-pop, ambient music and much more.
