A weekly journey through the history of Pink Floyd

"Floydian Slip" is a one-hour, weekly radio journey through the history of the rock band Pink Floyd. Host Craig Bailey works classic Floyd songs, deep album cuts and Floyd’s unique brand of ambient segues into a seamless blend of music and sound best described as a listening experience. Accented with succinct and thoughtful commentary, “Floydian Slip” is programming that becomes a weekly destination for classic rock fans. Craig aired his first episode of "Floydian […]

Craig Bailey has worked on-the-air since 1985 and has produced and hosted “Floydian Slip” for nearly as long. With more than 1,300 episodes under his belt, he’s recognized as a de facto expert on Pink Floyd.

He and his show have received attention in — or acted as a resource for — media as diverse as Billboard, VH1, The Dallas Morning News, MacFormat, Yahoo! Music, Relix, and The Ottawa Citizen.

He was featured in “Pink Floyd: Album by Album” by Martin Popoff, published in 2018; and was quoted in the book “Reinventing Pink Floyd: From Syd Barrett to The Dark Side of the Moon” by Bill Kopp. He also wrote the foreword to “Speak to Me: The Legacy of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon,” edited by Russell Reising and published in 2006.

Craig is co-owner of website development company Root802, an Apple fan, dog lover, part-time actor and writer.

He’s the developer of Read My Play™, a free script exchange service that helps playwrights share feedback on works-in-progress.

A Connecticut theatre company has tentatively scheduled a premiere of his one-act “Mitch Maclay Sings Just for You” for 2023. Another of his one-acts, “Valaise,” ran outside Toronto in October 2020. His latest is a short thriller called “The Mockingbird’s Nest,” short-listed for the 2022 Kenneth Branagh Award for New Drama Writing. All scripts are available for download at Playwrights’ Center.

A Vermont native, he’s lived in the Burlington, Vt., area since ’91.
