Craig Michael Strickland (June 2, 1986, Alma, Arkansas - December 2015, Kaw Lake, Tulsa, Oklahoma[1]) was an American country singer and the lead vocalist for the Arkansas-based band, Backroad Anthem, which formed in 2012.[2] Strickland married former Miss Arkansas Helen Wisner in 2014.
His body was discovered on January 4, 2016 after last being seen on December 27, 2015. It was determined by Oklahoma Highway Patrol that Strickland's body had been difficult to locate due to the camouflage hunting gear he had been wearing at the time of his death.[3]
Strickland and a friend, Chase Morland, had gone to an area known as Bear Creek Cove, at Kaw Lake[4] to hunt for ducks. Morland drowned after the 1977 Flat Bottom John Boat they were in capsized, while Strickland swam to shore, but later succumbed to hypothermia.[5] The area had been experiencing severe inclement weather due to Winter Storm Goliath, including ice, sleet, wind gusts, and freezing temperatures.
