Seattle musician Chris Stanley blends husky vocals with swampy acoustic guitar and Austin flavored electric blues. His concerts present dramatic contrasts of mood & vivacity, balancing the lively rush of certain songs with the deeper sorrow and lingering sullen notes of others. Chris Stanley's spontaneous antics and warm comedic dialogue tie together his intense and vibrant cheers in salute to and celebration of life's little complications.

Chris Stanley, Seattle native, has spent the past eight years establishing a reputation for his unique style of acoustic rock. Recorded at a discrete studio in Washington State, the new EP "Crossing Over" (now available at CD Baby) blends husky vocals with swampy acoustic guitar, a touch of electronic grooves, and lightens up with some delicate piano. Samples from recording sessions of the Chris Stanley Band have received airtime on 103.7 FM "The Mountain", 107.7 FM "The End", 90.3 KEXP, & 102.5 KZOK

Live. Chris Stanley is known in the Pacific Northwest for his strong musical skills, progressive song writing, diverse albums, and most of all for his compelling live performances. Together with grand prize winner of the Guitar Center/House of Blues Drum Solo Contest, Josh Heffernan, award winning bassist, Chris Jones, Chris Stanley hit the Seattle Circuit playing more than 200 shows at venues such as Nectar, Murphy's, the Raindancer, the Galway Arms, and Blue Moon in Wallingford/U-District, The Central and Fado Irish Pub in Pioneer Square, the Seattle Center downtown, the Paragon in Queen Anne, Poncho Theater on Capitol Hill, Lock and Keel in Ballard, and several Eastside locations such as the Celtic Bayou, the Kirkland Avenue Pub, the Game, Rock Bottom, and the JJJ. Their outdoor shows include annual July 4 outdoor shows at Lake Chelan, a four hour rooftop concert on University Ave., several rounds at the Pike Place Market, and...

Believe. We believe performing live is the most important aspect of music today. Last August Chris took the "Car Toys" stage in support of the "Dave Matthews Band" concert weekend at the Gorge Amphitheater (Washington) and is now laying the ground work for a new album.
