When I was eight years old, my father showed me how to play a 12-bar blues progression on the guitar, and something clicked that has never let go. Since then, music has taken me from coffeehouses and local clubs to weddings, festivals, tours across the western United States, and hundreds of stages in between. Looking back, it feels like every sound I chased as a child was leading me toward a life spent making music for others.” Sample Client Reviews: Having Chris play at our wedding was not only a true delight due to his incredible talent and creativity, but also because of the ‘breath of fresh air’ that is his entire heart and countenance- it is palpable in every room he is a part of! From a musical/ technical standpoint, Chris has you covered with his in-depth knowledge and mastery of his craft. He’s a professional in every sense of the word. His voice, coupled with his guitar playing, is like that ‘first sip of freshly brewed coffee on a crisp fall day, windows down with your hair in the breeze, hands lifted, eyes closed and head bowed in reverence’ kind of feeling. If that’s your vibe, Chris is your guy. Anyone would be truly blessed to have Chris play a part in their special occasion- it will certainly be one you won’t forget. - Ally and Bobby Rutherford My wife and I had the pleasure of having Chris, and his angelic voice perform at our wedding. What a guy! From leading a worship song before the ceremony to singing our first dance song, everything was flawless. He is knowledgeable, confident, and assuring during rehearsal. There are a lot of stresses and unknowns in planning a wedding, if you have Chris at your wedding, live music won’t be one of them. Thanks Chris! - Daniel Booz Chris did the music for our wedding and he was amazing!! He was easy to work with, reliable, and incredibly talented. It was so cool to have live music on our special day. We had to last minute change to an indoor wedding due to rain, and that transition went so well thanks to Chris. 10/10 recommend having Chris play at your wedding! - Ben and Elizabeth Cupo Chris is an incredible artist and totally catered to the vibe of our wedding. Chris was super accommodating, playing any requested songs and even having a few original songs that brought people to tears. He was one of the only aspects of our wedding we didn’t have to worry about or spend a lot of time planning! I can’t recommend or vouch for his service more. - Trace and Carlie Carnuccio
