A Lesser Culture is the solo project of multi­instrumentalist Christian Carpenter Fields, formerly of Phoenix, AZ band Skybox. Throughout the duration of playing with Skybox, Christian has had the pleasure of touring the country with the likes of Tally Hall, Jukebox The Ghost & Via Audio... playing such festivals as CMJ, SXSW, Lollapalooza and Old St. Pat's Block Party opening for Ben Folds.

After the dissolution of Skybox, he found himself with a valuable set of arranging skills that was left wanting for a foundation – A set of shapes and lines for which to set down his colors and textures. Reverting back to his childhood roots as a lover of hiphop, he soon found himself rifling through the pages of his rap hero's sources – A world of funk and soul, giving him a platform to hone is songwriting skills. Utilizing his self ­taught approach to music creation coupled with his fresh interpretation of said funk/soul conventions, Christian produces a confused and broken set of pieces that are danceable, full of pain & anger but not without a sense of humor.
