Chris Holliday
Acoustic/Covers Solo
Hey, thanks for clicking on my link! I'm sure you are busy with lots of important stuff so here's just a quick overview of the important things I can tell you about me and what I do:
I have been playing a range of instruments and singing for over 20 years (damn that makes me sound old, I started in Grade 2 which doesn't make me old at all hey?).
The majority of gigs I play are solo... it gives me the option to change the plan on the spot (sometimes mid-song) to cater for the crowd.
If you see "CrAsh" in the title of a gig, this means I'll be jamming with my mate Ash. Heaps of fun!
I do play acoustically... that is to say, everything I do is "amped up" and run through all my own gear but I refuse to use electronically generated backing tracks (that's what you call Karaoke right?)
If you check out my site, there's a bunch more info.
Hope to see you at a Gig soon!
Catch ya.
