Raised on a very healthy diet of good old fashion Rock N' Roll, including artistes such as The Who, Rush, Fleetwood Mac, Thin Lizzy, Peter Frampton, David Bowie and many more, it didn't take long before Chris, aged 13, picked up his dad's 1962 Fiesta Red Fender Stratocaster, and begin what would be a very fruitful career.

 

After earning his BA Hons Degree in Music, Chris quickly found his feet as a gigging guitarist (with an abnormal obsession towards guitars!). With a drive to transcend into a fulltime professional musician he soon landed a position fronting a successful touring function band.

 

Chris has been the guitarist and voice of many projects both live and in the studio, performing worldwide on renowned cruise liners, as well as at prestigious venues and festivals such as the famous Ronnie Scott’s, and The Ealing Blues Festival.

Chris has also recorded with many well-known artistes including Paul McCartney’s guitarist Robbie Mcintosh, and Boogie Woogie pianist phenomenon, Ben Waters.

 

Chris' life has organically been centred around music and guitars, and while already honing a strong career as a performer, session guitarist and educator, The Story of Guitar Heroes is a huge milestone and no better an opportunity for him to showcase every sonic arrow in his impressive quiver of guitar styles!
