Chris Harris will be hitting the stage!!

Bio: At an early age, I made the mistake of praying for experience in life. The good experiences are always mirrored by bad experiences and circumstances. Along the way, I’ve been fortunate enough to have met some incredible people and build bonds that I’ll cherish. I was homeless, locked up and stranded on an island, but looking for a silver lining. I started putting my stories to music. Being originally from WV, my sound comes from the bluegrass music I grew up with, and the Dead influences from my time on the road.

My songs come from life experiences that have been lived or witnessed. Most have been lived by myself. Because life is constantly throwing curve balls full of twists and turns. While you may hear a same song from another show, no two sets are the same.

One of my favorite things to do on stage is tell stories. Not only in the songs I play but also in the sets I play. I like to arrange my sets to tell stories as well. Sometimes, the stories are underlining and some are obvious. I, recently, started to tell The Stories of the Super Awesome Main character. I like to call him S. A. M. for short.

I am super excited about my upcoming album. I am extremely happy to have the help of the talented Randy Gilkey and others to bring my songs to life. After all my adventures I have learned that it takes some help and a lot of love to live out your dreams. As humans we are here to live, love, learn and grow. Spreading knowledge and wisdom for the growth of us all!!
