Craig Hollaman, of the duo Lindsey B. And Craig H., may claim to be boring, but really he is one of the most humble and coolest dudes around town. You might recognize his and Lindsey's work as choreographers with artists such as Cee-Lo, Justin Bieber, John Legend, Usher, or on T.V. shows such as Face Off, X-Factor, and 2 Broke Girls, or with brands such as Nissan, Evian, and Apple... you get the idea.
In Episode 19 of DanceSpeak, Craig speaks on his 14 years in Los Angeles. From dancing on tour with B2K, to his success in choreography, it is obvious that Craig has consistently grown in his field.
A theme we cover throughout the interview is on finding and sourcing inspiration and staying to true to dance as an art. We also speak about making money outside of dance, and living beyond the industry. Find out what Craig recommends for dancers looking to book auditions, and what they might want to know prior to booking a tour. All in all, this interview is filled with laughs, thought provoking moments, and of course tons of insights and information on the dance industry.
