Although born and raised far from the Appalachian mountains,
Chris does ride and roam on the folk/country road and living
where he does, writing and singing songs the only way he knows
how, he expresses and shares his feelings, experiences and
tales be it autobiographical, true, or a simple metaphor that
emotes and connects unashamedly and openly from the heart.

Now very much focused on singing and song writing, his mission
is simply to reach and appeal to a larger audience. |
Apart from his musical talents as a solo artist and band 'front
man', Chris's past appearances as an actor/singer in theatre
and television include being an original cast member of the
West End musicals Barnum at the London Palladium and Les Miserables
for the Royal Shakespeare Company at the Barbican, Palace
Theatre and Royal Albert Hall, London, Phantom of the Opera,
Blondel, numerous stage plays and musicals including Guys
& Dolls at the National Theatre London. Television sit-coms,
comedy sketch shows, TV & Radio commercials, Voice-overs
and 'presenting' work. He worked extensively in Children’s
Theatre & TV and can be seen almost daily as Milo the
Tweenie on CBBC.
He has appeared on Top Of The Pops twice ………………
