My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 30/11/2005
Band Website: www.chrissaub.com
Band Members: Chris Saub- Guitar, Piano and Vocals
Influences: I've always been attracted to those artists who push the envelope of Musicality and yet remain true to the Pop Genre.

Artists such as U2, Sting, Peter Gabriel, Genesis, Dave Matthews and John Mayer, have pushed the envelope of Musical Sophistication yet still are followed by the Pop Seeker.

I feel that is the continual, enjoyable challenge of songwriting, to deliver a sophisticated musical package with a refreshing, feel-good vibe.
Sounds Like: CS has been compared to: David Gray, James Blunt, John Mayer, Five for Fighting, and Dave Matthews

With Six Full Length Albums and an EP all hosting various musical styles, it's difficult to pin CS down.
