Artist
It’s been a long time coming, but Vancouver Island musician Christopher Arruda has decided to make a stand on his own. Having spent his late teens and early twenties fronting popular funk-rock band "The Lady Esther" and the ambitious post-rock outfit "Open, parachute!", the twenty-five year old artist has returned with a renewed sense of passion, drive and love for the music he creates. His performances are bold and varied. One moment a boistrous shout, the next a soft whisper, Christopher strives to connect with the audience through unbridled fervor and a captivating presence. Influenced by the likes of Thom Yorke, Sufjan Stevens, Rachel Yamagata and Sarah Slean, his sound strikes a chord somewhere between pop, rock and folk music but his only goal is to create inspiring soundscapes that are honest and true. Christopher has recently started booking shows in anticipation of his forthcoming record "God hates a coward". Already signed on to help with the project as engineer and co-producer is longtime friend and collaberator David Sponaugle. The record will be recorded in Victoria, B.C. and is tenatively slated for an early summer release.
