About

Chris was born in London, England. He was raised listening to The Beatles, The Monkees, and Queen. At 7 years old, he migrated to Southern California and at the age of 10, received his very first guitar. This led to the discovery of Mississippi Delta Blues, specifically from Muddy Waters, which sparked the search for more musical knowledge. He went through music theory classes and has been developing every day. He has had experience playing with local bands, studio sessions, substituting for gigs, has played at some major venues including Vans Warped Tour, the House of Blues and also many other local gigs. Chris does not teach one song at a time but the way he teaches is HOW to learn, which is the best lesson one could have. Currently, he resides in the sunny Long Beach, California and as of 2024, is creating an album with his own band, while also teaching students of all ages.
