Craig, 44, has made a new move away from his role as main anchor on NBC’s flagship breakfast show.
Along with sportscaster and his wife Lindsay Czarniak, 45, he’s revealed that he will be putting on a new charity gig with huge names.
The duo announced the concert on social media to raise awareness for the Colorectal Cancer Alliance charity, in honour of his late brother.
The NBC anchor captioned the post: “Lindsay and I are thrilled to once again host The Bottoms Up Invitational concert and golf tournament September 24-25 in Connecticut to benefit the @ColorectalCancerAlliance.
“This event is in honor of my brother Lawrence, who died from colorectal cancer three years ago, and all those affected by this disease.
“I hope you’ll join us for an incredible concert one month from today with Hootie & the Blowfish, Branford Marsalis, Javier Colon, Chris Barron, Ray Bourdreaux, Edwin McCain and Preston Pohl.”
This comes after his co-star Dylan Dreyer went missing from the Today show, where she confirmed the reason for her absence.
On Thursday’s episode of the morning show, Craig welcomed everyone and thanked viewers for joining them.
“Good morning, welcome to this third hour of Today on this Fri-yay eve,” Craig began as the latest episode of Today 3rd Hour kicked off.
He was joined by Sheinelle Jones and Al Roker.
“Dylan’s enjoying some well-deserved time off,” he continued.
However, Craig did not confirm when Dylan would be returning and she’s likely spending some time with her family.
