Craig Bickhardt &amp; Marc Douglas Berardo | Songwriters &amp; Storytellers Friday, October 30, 2026 | 7:00 PM Two seasoned songwriters share the stage for an intimate evening of songs, stories, humor, and the kind of writing that rewards a close listen. Craig Bickhardt has built a long career around vivid storytelling, thoughtful lyrics, and finely crafted acoustic music. A Philadelphia-area native, his path has taken him from the local folk scene to Nashville, where his songs have been recorded by artists including Ray Charles, B.B. King, Johnny Cash, The Judds, Tony Rice, and Alison Krauss. His live shows blend personal stories, sharp observations, guitar work, and songs shaped by decades of experience. <a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.craigbickhardt.com/bio.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">Craig Bickhardt</a> Marc Douglas Berardo is a singer-songwriter and storyteller known for pairing humor with deeply human songs about real people, places, and turning points. Over more than 35 years of performing, he has earned recognition at festivals including Kerrville New Folk, Telluride, Rocky Mountain Folks, Suwannee, and Wildflower, while building a reputation for warm, engaging performances that move easily between laughter and reflection. <a fr-original-style="" href="https://marcdouglas.com/?utm_source=chatgpt.com" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">Marc Douglas</a> Together, Craig and Marc bring two distinct voices to one stage &mdash; trading songs, sharing the stories behind them, and creating the kind of relaxed, conversational evening that fits perfectly in The Royal&rsquo;s listening room.
