Overview

Greetings:)
I am local singer-songwriter/performer with over 20 years of experience performing. In addition to four officially released folk/Americana albums, I have an expansive cover song repertoire spanning the genres. My specialties are Americana, country, folk/folk-rock, alternative rock, and classic feel-good tunes, but can perform just about anything in my own style and in a unique way. Whether you desire live music at your cocktail party or wedding, I can do it. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you think I might be a good fit for what you are looking for. I also have access to some phenomenal violin/fiddle, steel guitar and percussion players if you want a fuller sound. Thanks!

Chris is amazing!

We hired Chris for my Dads 70th birthday party and he did not disappoint. Amazing voice and great set list. His original music is really good too. He is such a nice guy and was so accommodating. Everyone kept asking where I found him and raving about his talent. Thank you so much, Chris! So happy we found you!

Amazing - Must book!

We booked Chris for our Midnight Rodeo themed event this past weekend and he did not disappoint. He had an amazing set list for us to choose from, learned some new songs to throw in that fit the vibes, and had everyone bobbing their heads or two stepping. He was early to the event, a great communicator, and a phenomenal singer and guitar player. We can't wait to have him back next year!

Chris Lively, What?!!

We’ve enjoyed Chris twice now at Dolce Niente in Spring TX
WHAT A TREAT!
Such a varied selection of songs, so entertaining.
The smoothest voice to enjoy over dinner or jammin’ on the patio.
I’ve missed this kind of show, since moving here from Houston.
Thank you Dolce Niente for proving this gem for our enjoyment.

What to expect

It is guaranteed that I will be there early and will put meticulous effort toward providing the type and quality of performance you desire. Because I am an original artist and love to craft, even when I am playing covers of songs, I like to put an original spin on them and color them with various features my own unique sound/style. My playing style is dynamic and could be described as a blend of melodic and percussive, and I often use a variety of finger-picking patterns, depending on the song/genre I'm playing. I like to explore sonic space and utilize the entire field of dynamic range when I play. There is palpable energy in each song I play, whether its subdued, meditative, moody, upbeat, or high-intensity. I am also extremely versatile, both vocally and with the guitar. I take pride in playing music as it is a fundamental component of who I am, so will take great care to ensure that my performances are fine-tuned down to each individual note.

About

"…Lively has proven himself to be a sophisticated songwriter who understands that folk music should sound literary and homespun at once...All the great folk artists knew how to strike this balance, and that’s why we still listen to them. Lively’s songs are twangy poems that will hold up fifty years from now.” – Ricky Kingham – Free Press Houston

Native to Houston, TX, Lively began songwriting in the late 2000’s with a focus on lyricism and melody underpinned by euphonic chording and a blend of folk/blues/Americana-inspired rhythms and instrumentation. Following the release of his debut EP, the Faintest (2013), Lively amplified his presence in the Gulf Coast music scene with the release of two full-length compilations, Feather (2015) and Distance (2017). In 2024 he released his third full-length album, Where We Are Right Now. Replete with spacious vocals, layered guitars, and a diverse array of meditative picking styles, the albums chronicle the evolution of an artist continuously maturing into his own truly distinctive sound. A seasoned performer, Chris Lively has had the opportunity to open shows for the indie-folk band Wild Rivers, Erica Wennerstrom of the Heartless Bastards, and most recently, the acclaimed John Hiatt.

Inspired by artists from City & Color to Sturgill Simpson to the Lumineers, there’s a contemplative,
mellow presence to Lively's music, frequently blending country’s twang and warmth with indie-folk’s charm. As a whole, his a collection of soulful and sometimes haunting stories that each contains a magnetism that leaves you wanting more. The songs bespeak a songwriter unafraid of charting new terrain and interweaving a vast and ever-evolving range of influences in the process. Whether solo or with his band, Lively’s hypnotic and dynamic performance style can both introspectively calm you and energetically tug at your heart. If it doesn’t, the songs will at least be stuck in your head.

Additional booking notes

I own state-of-the-art sound equipment (PA mixer and speakers) that can be adapted for just about any occasion. I also have any and all mics, cables, and accessories needed for a performance. I only need access to power.

***In addition to live performances, I am also able to offer other sound-related services for your wedding or event if desired. For example, if you wanted live music for the ceremony and/or a cocktail hour, but then wanted to switch to a more DJ-style setting for the reception for people to dance and party, I can curate playlists for you and use my sound equipment for that as well. I can also run sound found for speeches, announcements, etc. through my system.
