He was born just outside the concrete jungle of New York City, his parents were both philosophers, and met when his father, a classical guitar player and composer was strumming away in the quad on LIU’s Post Campus.  

Kris began attending live music events at the tender age of 3, catching local folk music events and many dynamic singer songwriters. He grew up on a steady diet of classic rock and 60s folk, with Bob Dylan, Phil Ochs and Leonard Cohen in frequent rotation.  

He started studying percussion at the age of 10 and started performing at local venues with his father by the age of 12 as a guitar and bongos duo. 

In the early 90s Kris became deeply connected to the underground New York hip hop scene, identifying local talent and working at then Koch Records under Alan Grunblatt in A+R at what is now Entertainment zone with artists such as Wyclef Jean, Master P and Jim Jones of The Diplomats. 

In 2013, he took a deep dive into the Burning Man scene, which sparked a passion for house music that burns intensely to this day.  Kris quickly went from promoting events to throwing his own parties, most notably he began to throw ILL Behavior with the Renegade Masters and co-founded the BK Castle parties, best known for showcasing local Brooklyn talent, and serving as the frequent after party destination for the Desert Hearts crew during their legendary visits to New York. 

He made a splash in the New York scene playing for Bang-On!-NYC, Ebb and Flow, Cache Life and SOUP records, and working as a booking consultant for Elements Music and Arts Festival. 

Close to his heart are sets atop some of Burning Man’s most beloved art cars, including the Real Fluffy Cloud and Heavy Meta the fire breathing dragon.  

Kris has made a name playing from coast to coast the U.S. and internationally as well,  sharing stages with beloved artists such as Goldcap, Philip Jung, and Lee Reynolds and plays as 1/2 of Easy Riders.

Founded as a record company in 1998, SONORE also became an artistic agency in 2008 at the same time as celebrating its 10th anniversary. Booking, providing management, music sales and publishing, SONORE has discovered so much talent in Japan that it has had to develop and broaden its activities to keep pace. With 28 disks out to date (current releases: Akane Hosaka and applehead), an authoritative work on Japanese music (Japanese Independent Music, 2001), contributions to films and documentaries (Body Modification Freaks, 2008) and numerous European bookings (Maywa Denki at the Les Bains Numériques festival at Enghien-les-bains on 6 June 2008 or Doravideo at the Universal Exhibition in Zaragossa, 16-17 August 2008), the Nîmes Biennial, the Japanese Experience (LEX), organised together with the Theatre of Nîmes must be one of SONORE’s major achievements so far. LEX 2009 will present all the thrill of contemporary Japanese creativity, bringing 19 music, dance and performance projects to Nîmes from 24 to 28 March 2009 (YMCK, Baby-Q, ASA-CHANG & Junray). In between times, SONORE will be celebrating its 10th anniversary on Friday 10 October 2008 at Super Deluxe in Tokyo (“a LEX 2009 sneak preview”) and on Sunday 23 November at Club Noon in Osaka (“Mozarella Panic Tour”) as part of the Osaka Festival of European Film.
