Born and raised in Texas with country in his blood, everything changed for Chris when he was given a garage sale guitar by his Dad at age 15. He immediately fell in love with singing and writing his own songs. This love eventually lead him to pack up everything and head to Nashville,Tennessee, the heart of country music. After living in Nashville for only a few years Chris got his first major label cut with the Sony Music recording artist Home Free. Along with being a songwriter, Chris is also a member of the Lost Saints who have been featured on CMT, made their national television debut on the Opry Circle Network, and even graced the historical Ryman stage.
