George Cromarty (September 15, 1941[1] – February 12, 1992)[2] was an American folk guitarist and singer. He is best known as the co-writer, with Ed Rush, of the song "Plastic Jesus",[3][4] though he went on to record three albums of solo guitar music in the 1970s and 1980s. The Folk Music Sourcebook likened his playing style to John Fahey's,[5] and George Winston cites Cromarty as a musical influence.[6] His music has been featured on the soundtracks of many films, including the Coen brothers' Inside Llewyn Davis.[7] The "Columbia record exec" in Inside Llewyn Davis was named "Mr. Cromarty" in honor of Cromarty.
