Bio

Every so often someone comes along with a style of music that cannot be classified or labeled as one particular thing. The style is so their own that it’s impossible to place it in just one group. Kris Allen is one of these musicians. If one had to try, they might say his music is a mix of acoustic, soul, and pop, but then they would also have to mention the blues undertones and quick moving rhythms of some of his songs. Not only is his style unique, but his strength is live performance where he entertains crowds with his powerful voice and his own personal take on a wide variety of favorites from Marvin Gay to Michael Jackson to Elton John.

Born and raised in Central Arkansas, music played a big role in Kris’s growing up years. He played viola in the school orchestra, and his talent for singing was always apparent to family and friends. At the age of 13 he taught himself to play the guitar which provided him with numerous opportunities to play for church and school groups alike. It was the summer after his sophomore year in college, however, that he began to write his own music and develop the unique style that he is known for.

After cutting his first CD, which was received well by local fans, Kris began to play shows in the Central Arkansas area. His most memorable shows were at Odie’s Acoustic Café in Conway and at Juanita’s in Little Rock. Listeners at every show are impressed with his performing abilities and always eager to hear more.
