| Often compared to Ben Harper, Ryan Adams or Amos Lee, this Kentucky born, Texas-raised singer/songwriter proves that there is still room in the music industry for a man with a vision. Deciding to expose the world to the music that only he can bring, Christian wears his heart on his sleeve to bring you songs that will inspire and motivate while bringing a fusion of acoustic soul at the heart of rock n’ roll. This vision is evident with Christian’s debut, live-studio release entitled, “Live Studio, EP.”
In the Summer of 2009 Christian joined with pianist Greg McKnight and violinist Lisa Clough to start working on their full-band release entitled, “Fire In City Streets Ep". Drummer John Allnutt jumped into the group early in 2010. The four are currently recording their first full length cd while getting videos ready to release.

Gregory McKnight
keyboard
After playing piano in a punk-rock band, Greg found himself alone, rejected and diffused at home in front of his new Fantom X8. Greg realized he now
had to start learning to play music to reach other forms of listeners. He began watching YouTube and practicing rolling his fingers up and down the
keys. Greg has transformed into the world's greatest pianist to ever come out of homeschool in Addison, Texas and finds himself often being amazed at
his finger's abilities and his attractiveness.
Gear:
Roland Fantom X8.
