Before changing the focus of his career to music composition, Chris worked as a bassist, guitarist, keyboardist, recording engineer, and producer. A studio owner and recording engineer since 1983, he’s worked with many local Washington, DC artists, including the legendary “Godfather of Go-Go” Chuck Brown. He has recorded well over 200 albums with styles as diverse as folk, rap, country, jazz, classical and rock, for labels including Motown, Columbia, Island, Def Jam, Sony and Virgin.
In 1986 Chris began recording the then-unknown singer Eva Cassidy. For the next ten years he worked with Eva to develop her as a recording artist, producing most of her recordings available today. In the years since Eva’s death in 1996, her recordings have sold more than 11 million copies and achieved international renown, including three albums that reached number one in the UK charts. Chris has received numerous Gold and Platinum records in the U.S. and internationally for his work with Eva.
In 2015 Chris and Lenny Williams produced an album for Sony Records Recording Artist Susan Boyle.
