Details:
A former student of Jazz saxophone giant Don Lanphere,
Christopher also wrote songs for Roy Buchanan''s group. Coming from jazz,folk & Blues, he has arrived at a very different music--playful, sensual and mysterious. He is a man of the age, following the inner thread of thought back to the wellsprings of song. The lyrics evoke a special place, like Maxfield Parrish for the 21st Century. Both childlike and sexy at the same time, tales of comfort and whirlpool love. The voice is raspy, tender and grounded in the mess that is life. "Climbing out of quicksand may not be easy," he says, "But it''s definietely worth the effort."
Transforming experience through the lens of optimism, dreams
and daring, Christopher thinks the best way to imagine the future of music is to invent it.
This CD also features Mark Hibbert, formerly with Merilee
Rush("Angel of the Morning") on Bass.
