Chris Shepard

“Many songwriters are craftsmen. Chris Shepard is that, and he is also an uncompromising original artist with a unique, darkly comic vision. He is also able to write affecting lyrics and memorable melodies in conventional song format. As a performer, he has a powerful and rhythmic guitar technique, and sings with exceptional strength and range. He deserves widespread recognition. ”
Randy Walker, Roanoke Times & World-News

Singer-songwriter, guitarist, actor and multi-instrumentalist, Chris Shepard has crossed the country and peppered the east coast and beyond to Canada with his kinetic and off-kilter solo acoustic performances.
A prolific songwriter, Chris has released six albums of original music
(Caller Number 9, Sin & Tonic, Crosseyed Loaded, Hellbender, The Sweetbrier Sessions, and Oddities).

Chris has taken an ever-changing and evolving mix of rock, blues and traditional musical influences and combined them to form a hearty and original primordial musical stew, ranging from serious to comedic.

Next up for Chris Shepard is FALL, an EP that represents a return to the fully fleshed out band format.

“Very cool 'n' loopy, heavy and NYC-ish”
