Chris m Ward

I am a singer/songwriter that hails from Southern New Jersey. Having played in bands for most of his teenage years, I recently decided to try my hand at writing acoustic songs. I always like the sound of an acoustic better than the distorted electric, call me weird. I taught myslef how to play guitar at a young age and soon moved to bass, drums and piano. When I play live I use a variety of covers (such as America, Im on Fire, Wayfaring Stranger for you Papa M fans and a bunch of others) and originals. I had a guy from OHEV records tell me once I sounded like Iron and Wine meets Kind of Like Spitting with a Red House Painters feel to it. Others have told me I sound like Owen, Snow Patrol, Elliott Smith, etc. My influences mostly stem from such greats as Nick Drake to Jeff Buckley.
