new hampshire native

new school vermonter

brattleboro residence

chris has been quietly singing his songs for years

giving away cdrs & cassettes to friends

planting his music here and there

jazz guitarist (studied)

teacher

made up his own book of guitar pattern(s)hapes

little room

small coffees & yogurt

sometimes soup or raw carrot

higher octave music

purple fleece jacket

maybe green pants

inverted guitar

he knows every oblique & obscure corner of the beatles

wrapped in blanket or poncho

did you know that paul used a capo on his bass?

white george harrison hat from the strawberry fields video

joyous open presence

curious infinitely creative mind

look into the third eye

its the ocean

daily mountain climber

late night talk

"all roads descend toward town" (snyder)

chris sheds personal taste filters (buddhism) to get into a very wide range of

songs, histories, moods, vibes, feels, memories, instincts, styles, love, peace

he takes chances (thank you john cage!)

pushes limits & boundaries & envelopes

this is pure, intuitive, heart music

lyrical imagery

strange and funny and spiritual

always honest

melodic twist & turns

harmonic curveballs

makes sense

always catchy

sweet tenor voice like that of colin blunstone

loves robyn hitchcock & syd barrett & steely dan & keith jarrett & jerry garcia

like the best tunes of the elephant 6

chris is a prolific songwriter

he's (more than) the daniel johnston of the new age

and now its the obama age

so its cool to write songs again

and its more than okay to like songs again

not many can craft a weird smart pop song like chris does

he is the bearer of a torch

running towards the ever expanding finish (beginning) line (light)

listening is easy

so do yourself a favor...

let these songs get stuck in your head for awhile

"tape walk" is a new collection of chris weisman songs taken from many of his self-released albums
