Christopher E. Lawson Jr was born in Sacramento, CA. He realized young at the age of about three, pots, pans and anything with a sound effect made him happy. One mic and one stereo is what started his dream. From the bass to the hard compressed claps, the sounds of instrumental greatness, and the voices soothing to his ears; music has always been a part of him. At the age of five, his parents introduced him to a microphone connected to a stereo, a tape deck player with an A/B side and the volume nob. From there on out he embarked his journey through music.

Born into a family with good choices of music and talent Christopher was able to soak up the abilities. Showing no favoritism to one genre, he was able to listen to a wide variety of sound. He first sang and performed on stage in the 6th grade leading the national anthem for graduation. At the beginning of Christopher’s second year of high school he moved to Elk Grove, CA. Sophomore year was a whirl of excitement. He took up a drum class, met his two closest friends Mike Sanders, Shawn Conrad, and his musical talent was restored. Beat boxing and rap circles, big crowds and dance battles they did it all. In his junior year at Franklin High School he took up a piano class and fell in love with the instrument. Focusing on Producing Christopher was able to make his own production and share to class mates for feedback. After graduating, for a while Christopher was a lead singer for the group “4Play”, but was unable to stay around and the group fell apart quickly.

Christopher took a year off of school until he then found himself enrolling in the Academy of Arts University. In two semesters he learned more than he could even imagine and became a better musician. Currently Christopher is still attending as a Producer, Singer and Songwriter and apart of  a production team called “RedAcademy”. Christopher is efficient with Logic, Pro Tools, Reason, Unity, Avid Media Composer, and Audio Production. Currently he is working on various productions involving Visual, EP’s, Mixtapes, and possible Albums.
