Chris is a multi-instrumentalist, playing principally traditional flutes / whistles, and cittern/bouzouki, + other instruments including bodhran, mandolin, keyboards, guitar, etc...
Grew up amongst the fantastic musical diversity around Manchester/north-west, playing principally (though not exclusively) irish trad and the not so well known traditional music (jigs/hornpipes/slip jigs etc) of his native region of the north-west in general.
Whilst staying close to his musical roots, he likes to keep an open mind and attitude towards other musical styles and influences.

His early professional experiences saw him working closely with a N°1 recording artist in other musical styles and proved to be a great learning curve in both musical and technical aspects, previous to that only playing the tin whistle/flute in folk sessions. The traditional music took on a professional level in the early 90's finally launching his first folk band and has never looked back since !
