ABOUT CHRIS SPARKS
I tend to break all stereotypes and enjoy a very diverse lifestyle. Try to fit me in a box and you will be wrong. I've always said that I have several groups of friends who would not get along with each other. Yet, I feel comfortable with all of them. Here are some basics about me:
Business
When I finished my MBA, I left my position as Area Manager at Wachovia to build a corporate recruiting firm with my father. I specialize in Banking, Finance & Marketing. We branched out into career sites and founded one of the largest business and career site networks in the world. I started SPARKS Records, Chris Sparks Entertainment & Barstool Cowboy Publishing so I could control my own music career and do it my way.
Education BSBA in Marketing - UNC-Greensboro MBA in Finance - UNC-Greensboro
Favorites
I workout 5-7 times per week. I love playing tennis. My favorite places are the beach, open road, recording studios, the stage and tennis courts. While I like to eat healthy food, I have a weakness for Mexican, Italian and Japanese. Family is the cornerstone of my life. My parents are my biggest supporters and best friends. I'm a huge movie fan and have over 500 in my house.
Music
I love and write all types. I don't understand people who eliminate a whole genre. They must be missing out on something. I do prefer artists who write their own songs. If they don't write their own songs, aren't they just singers?
Balance
Balance is my ultimate goal in life. I have no desire for my music career to get out of hand so much that I cannot enjoy the other parts of my life.
Women
I absolutely love women. I mean that in the best way possible. I've always enjoyed having close female friends. Most of my business relationships are with women as well. I still believe in chivalry. So, I like opening doors, pulling out the chair and saying , "Yes Ma'am." That's how my mama taught me. :)
I also do not believe that it is fair to call a woman high maintenance because she shops, takes a long time to get ready or gets manicures. Men should support the things women like to do to make them look and feel their best. I actually like to go shopping with a woman. I also believe in looking my best and like to have a complete wardrobe that allows me to dress for the situation.
ABOUT 'A WOMAN LIKE YOU'
Well here it is, the beginning of the CD I've wanted to record for a very long time. In short, it's dedicated to a girl I've never met; but, one I've been looking for all my life. On my first CD, I wrote a song called, "I Can't Write A Love Song' that basically said that I'm not going to write love songs for anybody but one girl. I won't write love songs until I know how they end.
After years of being single and not finding, "her", I came up with the idea to write love songs for her and who I think she is, wherever she may be. The result is at least 3 CD's worth of material for a girl I may have never met, yet I have known all my life. It's really no different than anything else I've done in my life because everything I do is really for her as the song 'Gettin' Ready for Love' says.

WHO I WANT TO MEET ON MYSPACE
If you're a romantic, be sure to add me. I just hope my music helps set the the right mood for a special night with the one you love or dreaming about the one you want.
100's OF SONGS COMING
Yes, I'm recording a bunch more demos right now for you to hear. Plus, I write every day. I think I have about 150 songs written right now. So, I hope you keep coming back so I can share them with you.
THE PHOTOGRAPHS
We just did a test shoot on June 16, 2006 for my updated look for the new CD. The pictures were taken with a low end digital and are just for planning purposes. But, let me know what you think about the new look.
A special thanks to Richard Childress for making us feel at home at Childress Vineyards while doing our photo shoots. We could not have found a better setting for photo shoots or our upcoming corporate events.
See you soon,
Chris Sparks
