Chris is very professional, delivered exactly what we ordered and he made the event so beautiful. Music is universal and people relax and enjoy themselves more when there are musical lyrics floating through the air, creating an ambiance each may relate to, then sparking a familiar memory between them.

What to Expect
Hiring me means you can relax and focus on enjoying the event, knowing that the music is fully covered. I bring my own professional-grade PA system and all necessary gear, ensuring high-quality sound for the entire duration I'm hired. For longer performances (2+ hours), I typically perform in 50-minute sets with short 10-minute breaks, during which I’ll provide background music to keep the energy flowing.
My setlist includes a variety of popular songs spanning multiple genres—from the classics of the ‘60s to current hits—including country, pop, funk, blues, alternative, and more. I specialize in reading the crowd and tailoring my song choices to create the perfect atmosphere for your event.
All I need from you is a dry, secure space to set up and access to a power outlet—I'll handle the rest!
About
I picked up the guitar and began singing at 15, driven by a passion for music that led me to join stage, jazz, and pep bands throughout high school to hone my skills. I expanded into choir and musical theater to strengthen my voice and stage presence. In my 20s, I played in a variety of rock bands across Seattle’s vibrant music scene before finding myself drawn to the acoustic sound and focusing on refining my style and expanding my repertoire.
From bars and wineries to cruise ships and private events, I’ve performed everywhere in between, building a diverse catalog that spans decades and genres. It’s been a rewarding journey discovering my own voice and defining what I bring to each performance. After years of traveling and exploring, I’ve finally found my home in Sequim and fallen in love with the pace and community of the peninsula.
Additional Booking Notes
I require a setup space of approximately 8’ x 8’ and access to a power outlet or extension cord. Once that’s in place, I’ll take care of the rest!
