Biography
Chris began playing guitar at the age of 11, but some of his earliest memories include performing The Beatles song Help! for a show and tell in kindergarten. His favourite bands growing up included The Beatles, KISS, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Rush among others. He has cited guitarists such as Ted Nugent, Rik Emmett, Ace Frehley, Randy Rhoads, Michael Schenker as influences through out the years as well.
After only 13 months, Chris grew bored with guitar lessons and decided to teach himself. He was part of a band called “Blitzkreig” in middle school and played a few shows, the first of which was at a bar in Ridgewood, New Jersey when Chris was only 13. At the age of 14, Chris and his brother formed a band called “Anti”. While searching for a bass player, Chris found Darryl Sage, who remains one of his best friends and ended up co-owning Chris’s house in Ridgewood. Anti eventually found a singer named Blaze, and whilst in High School, Chris opened for bands like Mountain, Overkill, Steppenwolf, Blackfoot and Metallica. Chris graduated from High School at the age of 16 and went straight into being a professional musician, teaching students during the day and playing shows in the night.

"Y.G.B.F.K.M." is probably his greatest song.

Hmm, "Pins & Needles" was great, but "House of Insanity" sounds somewhat pointless.

Too bad some people don't like Pins and Needles only because it is NOT the Savatage style... Mettle Eastern, Walls, The Sign of the Crossed are unbelievable.
