Bio:Christopher’s songs have been described as “a chewy blend between California pop and shadowy European styles.†Christopher incorporates big chorus hooks and chiming guitars that will stick with you well after you’ve hit ‘Stop’ on your music player. Often compared to Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham, and The Beach Boys, in both song writing and performance, listeners are sure to go home hungry for more of his memorable and well-crafted melodic songs.Inquiries:Five 5tar EntertainmentP.O.

Reviews:Reviewer: Todd Norcross - Producer/Musician
"Clearly very mature and introspective in content, this album is Zerbe's finest work to date. Darker and more personal in nature, all ten songs are beautifully composed and glued together by this one man band wonder. His signature harmonies and soaring Chorus' continue to benchmark a long-time career in music. Those pulled in by "Those Paris Nights" magic will enter a personal journey of loss and love that we all can relate to. Layered with great guitar playing and polished production that Zerbe is known for, "Those Paris Nights" is a perfect Summertime album, and will remain timeless for many years to come."Reviewer: Ann Roux - Singer/Songwriter
Even as a long-time fan of Christopher Zerbe’s music, I continue to be amazed by Chris’ musical ingenuity, songwriting craft and production finesse which is evident on each new song and CD he releases. "Those Paris Nights" is an especially tasteful experience in headphones as well, where every nuance is impressively captured in Chris' brilliant and seemingly effortless guitar work and unique vocal blends. Definitely a CD to own!Reviewer: Steve O'Mara
"Really well crafted songs! I am a starving student, but I'll be saving my coin to buy the whole CD - really soon. I hope you aren't tired of comparisons to 'the Mac' but WOW! The samples I've heard are like 'Mirage' crossed with 'Out of the Cradle'. I will be keeping an eye out for zerbe - coming to a concert hall near me I hope."Reviewer: Jo And Jensen
"When I listen to it, I feel like I am getting a little taste of FM, Lindsey, The Beach Boys, and even Walter Eagen all at once. The first song, 'Carry On', has so many delicious layered guitars, etc. that it seems like a track taken right off of 'Out of the Cradle'. Then the second song is so spunky, groovy even, that it seems like it would fit into Walter Eagen's 'Fundamental Roll'. The rest of the CD just carries on with excellent melding harmonies and the littlest detail of sound that makes you just want to listen to it again to try and figure out how he did it. Christopher Zerbe has managed to put his own spin on the layers and the exuberance. It's a very good album! It'll put you in a happy mood if you need one."Reviewer: Bill Wagner
"The songs in the CD are a great mix of harmonies and lyrics that don't get old after listening to them once. zerbe's live show is even better than the CD. I highly recommend both!!"Reviewer: Timothy Kee
"On my third listen, this album really came alive for me. It's like a summer breeze. Great pop music. I was reminded a little of Shoes, even Walter Egan . . . The album as a whole is quite good. He's a pop craftsman to be reckoned with. My hat's off to him for having all of the writing credits. I rarely take artists seriously who aren't also writers. I do hear some Buckingham influenced guitars and production, but this is clearly Zerbe's album. It's great to hear this kind of pop in the era of technocrap. I'll be looking for his follow up disc."
