Craig Campbell was born in Lyons, Georgia. He grew up as one of five children in a blended family. His parents divorced when he was young, leaving his oldest sister—11 years his elder—to take care of the siblings while his mom worked many jobs. His mother married his step-father when Craig was 7. He saw his biological father every other weekend until his dad died when he was 11. He played piano at his mother's church from age 10 to 18, and formed a band called Out of the Blue as a teenager. He also won contests sponsored by True Value Hardware at 15 and at 18.
