Equally at home on harmonica, guitar or trumpet, Chris along with his brother Ken, was a driving force behind the now legendary Incredible Sloth Band from the late 60’s through early 80’s. He has also released a number of highly praised solo recordings in the past 20 years. On this his Electro-Fi debut, Chris approaches the Blues from many different angles, each one inspired and innovative. Chris Whiteley himself said it best when I asked what Blues music means to him and he told me “Blues was my first passion and it’s the one that’s always stuck with me”.
