      Get to know Chris

      I've been involved in music for 42 years when I picked up the trumpet at 8 years old, because my school did not offer strings. After trying multiple brass instruments, I ended up landing on the bass guitar at 15, and then guitar in my early 20s. I also began studying music theory in high school. As Philly native, I've played in several bands in the Philadelphia/Delco/Main Line area ranging in styles from Progressive Rock, Fusion, Funk, and Psychedelic.
