Bio
Christian played his first live show at Staten Island's Redspot at the age of 13. Over the years, he was a part of many bands, whose styles included hard rock, hard core, funk, and folk.
Without a band, at the start of 2001, he found himself seeking more opportunities for growth.
Christian quickly found himself working with very talented singer/songwriters, in two different settings. He was able to gain valuable studio experience as a session player, while also adding additional stage experience accompanying singer/songwriters.
The time he spent working with songwriters sparked his interest in finding his own literary voice.
He began experimenting with writing and also with playing chords on bass, originally to work out guitar parts, but in time they became the only parts.
For the past few years, Christian has been slowly building his material and playing as often as he can. He's had the opportunity to play in Los Angeles (Rainbow, Kibitz's Room, UnUrban Coffee House, Highland Ground), San Diego (Twigg's), Seattle (Liquid Lounge), Chicago (Uncommon Ground, Goose Island Brewery), Philadelphia (Grape St. Pub, Fergie's Pub, The Point, Lickety Split), NY (CB's Downstairs Lounge, The Bitter End, C-Note, Acme Underground, The Real McCoy, Muddy Cup, Martini Red, and interpreted shows at the Staten Island Club for the Deaf), CT (Greens, Jimmy's Seaside), and NJ (The Exchange, Van Gogh's Ear).
The future has yet to be written...come along for the ride.
