ABOUT
Hi there! I'm Chris, and I'm a professional cellist in the Southern California area for over twenty years. My training is centered in classical music, but I've performed and recorded many genres including metal, rock, indie, folk, jazz, video game soundtracks, and much more. I can read sheet music with no problem, but am also comfortable with learning songs by ear and improvising.
I'm mainly on here to provide my services for those who are looking for cello and/or string ensembles for their next project, whether it's in the demo phase or currently in the studio. If this is you, shoot me a message and let's start a conversation of what you need! Thanks for reading!
