NASHVILLE RECORDING ARTIST: CHRIS GRAY

About Me

With the release of his latest CD, IT’S ALL ABOUT ME, Chris Gray confirms what loyal fans already know … the guy is the real deal. Singer. Songwriter. Mesmerizing performer.The most crowded venues during CMA MusicFest 2008 fell silent with rapt attention when Chris took the stage for several shows in Nashville.He has opened for some of the biggest names in Country Music, including George Strait, Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney, and Martina McBride. He’s performed with David Allen Coe, Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, Merle Haggard and Tracy Lawrence. His first music video, "Red, White, and Blue", is a national holiday staple on GAC, showcasing a song Chris wrote while serving aboard the USS Missouri in the Persian Gulf War.When he’s not headlining one of his many shows nationwide, Chris might be found co-writing with other notable Nashville songwriters in preparation for his next project.Chris has entertained and met with thousands of military personnel and their families stationed at bases around the world. He’s done 3 overseas tours entertaining U.S. troops in Kwajalein (the Marshall Islands), Guam, Japan, Okinawa, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, and many bases in the most dangerous parts of Iraq. He returned from his latest tour in Bahrain just in time to head to Nashville for CMA MusicFest (formerly "Fan Fair"). His devotion to giving back has gained him worldwide recognition and respect, as Chris and his band have literally put their lives on the line flying into these hot zones to bring some much needed distraction and entertainment to those who serve.IT’S ALL ABOUT ME includes one hit after another like the deceptively tender title cut and the optimistic “I Only Have Good Days”, but Chris can also shake it up with a rockin’ country tune like “She Likes Me Bad”. And then there’s “South of Heaven” which Chris co-wrote, with its clever lyrics, driving beat and bluegrass harmonies. Indeed, Chris has a knack for writing and choosing songs that not only showcase his winning vocals, but give a glimpse into the heart of the artist himself with songs about loyalty, integrity, love and faith … with a touch of humor … all brilliantly produced by Grammy Award winner, Ron Cornelius.“It’s All About Me”. It’s Chris Gray and it's what Country Music is all about...
