About Me


Born Christopher Patrick Francis, I began making music in my early years. I have found myself in several projects/bands, taking on different roles and instruments along the way. More recently.. the past decade, I have been swimming on that fragile line dividing acoustics and electronics. Trying to develop the relationship between the two. Ultimately finding comfort in my acoustic, and wisdom in my electronics. A few projects that are going right now including the Chris Patrick project are, Gnome: Funky glitchy idm acoustic/electronic hybrid with my great friend Andrew Fi who is based out of Nelson BC.. myspace.com/andydexterous. Yellow Overtone Human: music for movie scores, art installations, the mellow ambient side of me.. myspace.com/yellowovertonehuman.I'm always open to collaboration.
