Chris Brashear is a dynamic instrumentalist, a charismatic singer with a high, clear voice, and a songwriter who portrays contemporary life with old-time flavor. Chris currently performs with the bluegrass band Perfect Strangers. Chris worked as the fiddle and mandolin player with Robin and Linda Williams and Their Fine Group for seven years and recorded with them on their last three Red House recordings, Stonewall Country, These Old Dark Hills and Back Forty.
He often plays as a duo with Peter McLaughlin and recently released their second recording entitled So Long Arizona. The CD features new songs written by Chris and Peter, and guests include Todd Phillips, Tom Rozum, Jim Watson, Neil Harry, Jody Stecher and Kate Brislin. He is currently working on a recording project with Peter McLaughlin and Todd Phillips.
He will be in the Poughkeepsie area demonstrating the fiddle for our “Evolution of Bluegrass” course being taught this Spring. We are, indeed, fortunate to have this opportunity to hear an extended concert in Rhinebeck!
