British singer/actor Richard Fleeshman is perhaps best known for his recurring role as Craig Harris on the long-running British television soap opera Coronation Street. Born Richard Jonathon Fleeshman on June 8, 1989, in Manchester, Fleeshman is the son of actors David Fleeshman and Sue Jenkins. While acting was his first claim to fame, he has shown an aptitude for vocal performance over the years, as he won two popular television vocal competitions with Stars in Their Eyes in 2003 and the charity-based Soapstar Superstar in 2006. Subsequently, Fleeshman snagged a record deal with Universal and released his '70s-influenced, adult alternative rock-leaning debut album Neon in 2008.
