I wrote and released this song several years ago, but never felt completely happy with it. So I went back and started playing with it and I am now in love with this new shape. More work to do on it still...but it makes me very happy so far.

Little Bird ft. Amanda Cottreau

I've been messing around with this cover for awhile, and I'm really enjoying the shape that it is taking.

Karma Police

A silly little love song that I wrote. Not really sure how it popped into my head but I recorded a rough version of it and I quite like it. 



Waiting On The Moon

Winter

A song I've returned to working on after a long absence.

This Love And These Waves

Here is my arrangement of an old traditional Irish song called The Parting Glass

Chris Angel - The Hero of Canton - 06 The Parting Glass

My version of Scarborough Fair, taken from my second album, Better Late Than Never

Scarborough Fair

I finally got around to working on one of my songs. I wrote this a couple of years back and have been tooling around with it again. 

Like the shape it is taking...

Brand new song I'm working on for the new album. Listen and enjoy!

How I Love

I think I have finished working on this song finally! Let me know what you think. It's taking me months, but I'm finally happy with it.

Strange little song I've been working on.

Cover of Scared that I'm working on for my upcoming EP. I'm loving the shape that this took. Thanks to my friend Lindsay for the backing vocals

Scared

Chris began performing at bars and pubs while completing his degree in performance music at the University of Windsor. Chris started out playing open mic nights at Patrick O’Ryan’s Irish Public House and soon became a regular fixture at a dozen Windsor and Detroit bars.

After three years of playing both solo shows and as a member of the Celtic rock band The Distractions, Chris returned home to Eastern Ontario. During the last eight years, he has played solo shows and as a member of the duos Sociable and Rocking Horse and the rock band South of Heaven.

Chris has captivated crowds from university students to legionnaires, with a collection of songs that range from current top 40 rock hits, to Scottish ballads. While tending to focus on a fast-paced mix of rock and modern Celtic favourites, Chris is always up to the challenge of satisfying the requests of any crowd.

Before leaving Windsor, Chris released his first CD, Celtic Stepson, independently. The album features a collection of traditional songs arranged in a less-than-traditional manner. Chris has always felt that the beauty of traditional music lies in it’s ever changing nature and how it it can shift and change from one generation to the next. With this first album Chris was able to share his own interpretation of songs that he had heard performed hundreds of times before.

The 2011 release of the album, Better Late Than Never, marks Chris’s return to recorded music and, once more, features a variety of traditional songs and a few original compositions.
