Hailing from the Northwest corner of New Jersey Chris has been an anchor in a vibrant and incestuous music scene out there for many years. "There are so many diverse acts out there and we support each other in their projects". He has recorded over a dozen records for indie  labels such as Buy or Die and LCD and  goliath Interscope having the honor of working with legendary producers as Alan Duchess, Don Sternecker ,  Andy  Wallace, Stan Pendridge and John Siket. Chris co-wrote and co-produced many of the songs on the Harpoon Daddies critically acclaimed, “Perspective is Everything” album.

Chris has been touring with many diverse NE bands such as Kings in Disquise, Harpoon Daddies, Rev Sole and the Saviors, Alaskan, Laurie Cagno, Crazy River and Drop Thud Oops. He has also had the privilege to tour with nationals such as  Tish Hinojosa, Todd  Wolfe (sheryl crowe) Peter Knight (steeleye span) supporting or sharing the stage with Willie Nelson, Dickey Betts, Peter Frampton, Rickey Skaggs, Peter Rowan and Roger McGuinn. “One of my favorite moments was when Smokin Joe Fraiser joined us for a set in a club down in Philly, we had a gas on stage with him”.

Chris met Johnny some years back and played with him in various side projects until joining StirFried in '06. "I love the music, and everyone I’ve met have been so cool. What a great group of musicians to jam with."
