Chris Avey

Many of you know Chris Avey as the guitar ace from the blues-driven Avey-Grouws Band. His searing guitar style can melt paint and fry bread. Their songs have been seen in the Top Ten of the Billboard Blues Album Chart. But Avey has a softer side…NOT! But he does have a songwriter side over and beyond what your ears may have caught via AGB. He has a larger catalog of original songs that, complete with a non-conformist acoustic guitar style, can make a listener hurt, hallucinate or snort adult beverages through their nose. Yea, no… it’s true. Sit back and Chris Avey will make you sit up… and listen!
