A Singer / Songwriter with an eclectic, classic sense of writing, Chris Allen's Candour is both a connected and widely varied album in terms of musicians, lyrics, and feeling. Never satisfied with one style, Allen embraces an uncompromising, truthful stance in his music, always striving for an intelligent and creative manner to breathe popular songwriting new life.
“Chris’s eclectic taste in music is translated into his album, Candour, which features 12 songs in a variety of styles that mix Southern rock, alternative, classic and 70s rock, and pop. Chris finds inspiration from artists such as Jeff Buckley, Led Zeppelin, Radiohead, and Pink Floyd.”
