Musicianship and a love for performing runs deep in Chris Bullard’s blood. As a boy, Chris would watch his mother sing in the choir at church. Chris says, "watching her belt out the soprano notes on gospel hymns inspired me to find my own voice and sing out. The soul of those gospel tunes still resonates with me today." His grandparents also were musicians and singers who played country music to entertain friends and family. When asked what was the catalyst that motivated his first steps towards music Chris mentions, “There are two moments that changed me forever. The first was watching Back to the Future and seeing Marty McFly tear up Johnny B Goode. Watching that awesome scene fueled my desire to play guitar and sing rock music. The second was listening to Foreigner and Michael Jackson tapes my mother gave me. Hearing Eddie Van Halen play the guitar solo on ‘Beat It’ absolutely blew my mind. After those two experiences, all my musical DNA couldn’t help but boil over and I knew the road I had to take.” The Oklahoma native picked up a guitar at the age of 7. He sang in the choir in school and at church, and fronted several rock bands. “Those garage band rehearsals were where I found my musical identity. I found you never truly arrive. You just gotta keep woodshedding until you start to sound like your influences,” he says. It was in his mom’s garage, covering 90’s and classic rock, where Chris learned to vibe with a band, find his epic screaming voice and write songs.
