Captivating Acoustic Music

Experience the soulful melodies and heartfelt lyrics of Chris Donahue.

“Music has always been a part of my life. Family roadtripping cross country in the summer, spinning 8-tracks, I still clearly recall the soundtrack of our lives; the Beatles, The Eagles, the Everly Brothers, the Beach Boys... Whenever I hear the opening “Sshhhikk” of Come Together, I’m right back there in that green Ford van."

About Chris

"Both my parents played acoustic guitar, my older brother was an obsessive electric shredder. I wore out several Walkmans with a mix ranging from The Commodores to U2 to AC/DC, and fell in love with harmonies and fantastic voyages. I began playing bass with working bands in the early ‘90s, then found my passion for acoustic guitar, song writing, and performing as a solo artist."

"Music for me means good times, positive vibes, hanging out with friends. I enjoy songs that make you feel, carry you away. I’m inspired by guys like John Mayer, Prince, Chris Cornell; I hope that some of their influence finds its way into my tunes, and I hope that some of my tunes find their way positively into someone else’s mix."
