Christopher Wright
I recently found Christopher on Facebook, now as most of you know that I am not a huge fan of today’s Country music. Christopher Wright is not playing today’s style; he is sticking with Traditional Country music. I recently obtained an EP from Christopher; it has 3 original songs and 1 cover. I have to say I am very impressed with Christopher’s sound and voice. Now Christopher’s voice is sort of smooth sound with a whisky roughness to it. Which fits well with his songs, also with the cover he does of Cody Jinks “I am Not The Devil”. I can really see Christopher making a name for himself in Country Music as long as he sticks with traditional Country music. I have seen a few videos of Christopher playing live, he usually plays solo with just his guitar. I have to say that Christopher has a great stage presence, where he really makes you feel comfortable enough that you can enjoy his music. I highly recommend everyone check out the links below to see & hear Christopher Wright’s music. https://www.christopherwrightmusic.com/ https://www.facebook.com/CMWRIGHT74781 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyyApvKBZn4in2W3OB8qig I recently got a chance to ask Christopher some questions, here are his answers.
