Chris Gatton is a jazz and avant garde influenced singer songwriter gesturing at pop music. He plays with the idea that music that is complex and nuanced can still be accessible. While his songs possess great imagination and depth, a slight lean into the absurd and irreverent keeps them from the trap of over sentimentality.

Chris Gatton’s debut album My Favorite Razor’s Edge, featuring drummer/producer Dave King (The Bad Plus) and bassist Erik Fratzke, will be out on September 23rd, 2022.
