Christopher Bright
I love music. I love creating it, playing it, practicing it, listening to it, talking about it, learning about it, and even just thinking about it!
I've spent my whole working life as a musician, and have been fortunate to work in several different areas of music, including: Playing with over 50 bands, recording over 500 songs, and working on a solo project that has 50 million streams (and counting). I've toured nationally, worked professionally as a guitar tech, taught privately, composed music for TV commercials & documentaries, and I've been a Worship Leader as well. Let's just say I've been pretty busy!
As a musician, I love what I do, and I draw on 25+ years of real-world experience in the industry to help my Sweetwater customers in each of their unique musical journeys!
As your personal contact here at Sweetwater, please let me know anytime I can offer help or advice.
