I will work to craft exactly what your song needs. Whether it's soul-tinged chord passages, stirring solos, funky rhythm parts, or delicate soundscapes, your track will start to breathe more with my guitar parts. I'll bring my joy for the instrument, and you'll receive layers of guitar tracks to choose from to get the perfect vibe for your project.

First off, thank you for considering to bring me on board with your musical project. Whatever your end goal is, I know that writing and recording is a deeply personal process and I'd be honored to work closely with you to achieve what YOU want for your music.

When you hire me you are guaranteed to receive 4-8 (depending on the project) carefully crafted guitar tracks from me for every tune. Through one-on-one preproduction and musical references I will make sure I understand your vision, and later will be happy to make revisions if requested.

Since 2014 I have been based out of Nashville, and being immersed in the high level of musicianship here has made me "battle-hardened" to consistently make the music I play feel and sound good. In college I learned to tastefully approach many styles of music, from blues to jazz to latin to classical and everything in between. With gigging both locally as well as all around the U.S. (and internationally) I've learned to bring heart, tone, and style to every performance.

I'm grateful to have toured and recorded with some truly wonderful artists. From signed country stars like Kylie Morgan, to up and coming neo-soul artists like Arlana. The list goes on and on: Doug McCormick, Kiera Loveless, Leah Colon, Brother Maven, Safari Room, Paulina Jayne, Jaye Madison, Colleen Orender... Let's add your name to this list!

    Chris is the best session guitarist that I have worked with. Not only is he extremely proficient in his guitar playing, but he is always prepared, having looked at the charts and listened to the demos beforehand, and he adapts to mid-session direction with incredible efficiency. I have never had a session with Chris that had any wasted time, and I have always been more than satisfied with the results of our recording. To top it all off, he's a good hang, he's kind, and he's always a joy to work with. I can't recommend him enough.

    Chris is a joy and a pleasure to work with! His precision and creativity lend to his ability to replicate, enhance, or add to any part, project, or piece you’re working on. We worked on a whole album together and it was a blast to witness his compositional skills and range. He sets the bar high and it’s always in the pocket.
