Chris Waters

Singer /songwriter/ rapper/ DJ and curator from Milwaukee, WI and now living in Tampa, FL. Debut was an EP called &#34;Rise,&#34; released June &#39;18.

Waters returned to his electro pop roots in 2023 with his single &#34;Blue to Purple,&#34; which quickly became his biggest song to date.

&#34;I would describe myself as a reformed partier.... lol. I grew up in Wisconsin and started drinking at a very young age. I kept that going for a long time, but eventually it just wasn&#39;t working for me anymore. I decided to stop drinking in March of 2016, and I haven&#39;t looked back since. I still have that addictive &#34;thing&#34; going on, but now I&#39;m more addicted to exercise and making music/ DJing. It&#39;s been a long journey, but my love of music is only growing as I get older.... so I plan on being around for awhile and I see no end in sight.&#34;
