Chris (guitar and vocals)
			Starting out as a guitarist for the "Up-and-Runnin' Band," Chris spent most weekends in smokey Moose Lodges, conservative VFWs, and other hot spots in southern Indiana. After two years, he took a hiatus and worked his way through school all the while keeping his guitar and vocal skills sharp by performing at occasional "open mike" and "blues jams" around Indy.  Influenced heavily by old blues legends like Buddy guy, Hubert Sumlin, Albert King, Freddie King, as well as modern day blues and rock singers like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimmy Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Robert Cray, Chris has spent the last 16 years working to find his own brand of guitar playing while continuing to grow as an artist. Bring the rockin' blues of The Kingpins to your next party, and they'll dance 'til they can't dance no mo!
