Chris Boss and The Fuss

Are we famous yet?

About Me

The Fuss was recently voted "Group Most Deserving of a Major Recording Contract" in a regional magazine". One listen to their brand new album ("One Hot Night" released June 06 on Electro-Sonic Records) and you'll know exactly why. The Fuss is led by Chris Boss, a unique Texas artist gushing with charisma and a passion for entertaining people with hooky, melodic tunes delivered in a spontaneous, energetic live show. Add to that Chris award winning guitar playing and a band of world class pros and you have a recipe for success!Chris got his start by entering local battle of the band, and guitar competions. Winning almost everything he entered gave Chris a underground buzz through the media coverage of the events without really having to work the bars like most of his peers. When Chris finally decided to jump into the club scene, he made an immediate impact and before he knew it, he was playing 250 dates a year all over Texas. Chris Boss- "We don't mind playing cover music at all, it gives us a platform to showcase our skills and our original music too! I think one thing that gave us an advantage when we first started was that we really try to involve the audience". Says Chris. "Most bands were up there looking at their sneakers the whole time during their performance". When The Fuss hits the stage, it is a show, an event, and the audience is always a big part of it!" Now, with the release of their debut album One Hot Night Chris and the boys are ready to show the world what The Fuss is all about.Chris has opened for artists such as KISS, Steve Vai and others. He is referred to by critics as a "local phenom" -(Jim Beal music editor) San Antonio Express News, for his versatile guitar playing and dynamic presence. Chris is a regular winner of "The Best of San Antonio" readers poll in the San Antonio Current. Three time winner of the "San Antonio Guitar Wars" competition. "This is one of, if not THE hottest unsigned rock acts in Texas". -Daniel Becker "Indie Source Magazine".
