ABOUT

Hi I'm Chris, looking to co-write and produce original music for release on Spotify etc. I'm a prolific writer and I enjoy exploring ideas with other inquisitive musical minds, see what happens. I'm looking to work with singers, songwriters, and producers. I predominately work using Ableton Live.

I currently play 4 to 5 gigs a week playing acoustic covers as a solo or duo, however I'd love to expand and build connections with interesting musicians and producers to release original music.

Music is life! It's fun, silly, brilliant, beautiful, majestic, magical, happy, sad, and everything in between. Let's jam!
