AMERICAN ROCK

About Me


American Rock Artist Kris Bell blends captivating melodies with powerful guitar hooks, creating a bold, modern sound for today’s Rock and Adult Contemporary markets. Kris’ songwriting stems from deep within him and flows out in warm, rich vocal tones on ballads such as “Destined” and “Letter of Goodbye” while belting out his high-powered rock anthems “Livin’ For Tomorrow” and “Grey” with soul and grit. He tops his songs off with dynamic guitar solos reminiscent of legends Clapton and Vaughan, but with his own signature flare of smooth and bluesy cries capped with intense and ferocious jamming.
Kris began playing at age seven, when he was given a classical guitar for Christmas. From then on, he learned to harness his talent and build on the potential he possessed. In April of 2005, Kris moved from his hometown of San Diego, CA to Nashville, TN to pursue a music career. Within one month of relocating, he was quickly hired as the Lead Guitarist for American Idol star Bo Bice. For the next two years, Kris performed on numerous television programs, toured nationally, recorded on a major label record and was featured in a number one music video on MTV and VH1.
In 2007, Kris began pursuing a solo career and started recording his debut album at Dark Horse Studios in Franklin, TN. After many months of recording, Kris’ album is nearing completion and scheduled to be released in May. It promises to be a hard hitting, emotional journey through passionate lyrics, melodic grooves, and forceful guitar work that draws the listener in with its addictive flavor.
