Chris Willow is a London-based singer-songwriter, record producer, and guitarist known for his exploration of mystical themes and his emphasis on sharp and focused songwriting. His debut album, "Songs of New Beginnings," showcases his raw and honest lyricism, recorded over the backdrop of London street noise.
Currently working on his next album, Chris continues to infuse his music with self-assessment and exploration, touching on themes of existential angst, theology, and folkloric-inspired poetry.
As a performer, Chris has played with various bands at festivals like Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party, Guilfest, and Lounge on the Farm. He has also worked as co-writer, performer, producer and recordist on many projects, some of which are listed below.
