George Cromarty (September 15, 1941 – February 12, 1992) was an American folk guitarist and singer.
He is best known as the co-writer, with Ed Rush, of the song Plastic Jesus, 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, and George Winston cites Cromarty as a musical influence.
His music has been heard on the soundtracks of many films, including the Coen brothers' Inside Llewyn Davis.
The "Columbia record exec" in Inside Llewyn Davis was named "Mr.
Cromarty" in honor of Cromarty.
