Born and raised in upstate New York, Chris gravitated to music at an early age, playing any instrument he could get his hands on. Eventually settling on the guitar, Chris moved to Boston to attend the Berklee College of Music where he studied alongside classmates such as Bleu, and John Mayer.
After graduation, Chris set his sights west and moved to Los Angeles To continue performing and writing music. In the short time since his arrival, Chris has performed with Maverick recording artists Justincase and was the featured guitarist on the 2003 American Idol tour.
In the fall of 2003, Chris took a hiatus from touring to complete his first solo project. The result is Chris' debut album, "Falling Into Place". Blending multi-instrumental skill with catchy melodies and meaningful lyrics, the album showcases songs with a pop-appeal that speak to the listener on many levels.
Chris has performed around California in venues such as the Mint, the Roxy, and room 5.
