ITS-CHRIS

My Name is Chris from the beautiful city that never sleeps, New York City (Manhattan - El Barrio). My parents are from the Dominican Republic, and from an early age, I developed a deep appreciation for the incredible music of my country, known as Merengue Típico and Bachata.

While I explored various genres like R&B, Pop, and Hip-Hop, the one that truly captured my heart was Bachata. At the tender age of 12, I began playing traditional Dominican instruments, La Güira and La Tambora, performing at local restaurants and bars with talented bands.

Though I became known for playing these instruments, my true passion has always been songwriting—crafting beautiful melodies and heartfelt lyrics. I’ll admit, for a long time, I was hesitant to share my songwriting, fearing I wouldn't meet expectations. However, as I refined my skills, I continued playing La Güira alongside incredible artists such as Prince Royce, 24 Horas, Bachata Heightz, and many more.

Through it all, I remain grateful to God for blessing me with the opportunity to do what I love—stepping on stage and sharing this beautiful music with the world. Here I am today, ready to give you my best.
