here is my performance schedule and information on booking me. i have spent decades in the studio recording instrumental pieces. i also come from a singer/songwriter background. my performances are not as grandiose as my recorded compositions, but they provide a way to connect our humanity in a direct, intimate way.

here's what someone wrote about my performances:

Chris Spheeris is a performer that takes any pretense out of being spiritual, and any formality out of a concert setting. Sharing soulful songs with poetic lyrics, a warm, strong voice in a pop sensibility just comes naturally to him. He also shares relevant life experiences, insights, and an occasional spoken word piece with a steady dose of humor and spontaneity. Couched in readily accessible language with no discernable contrivance, are themes of eastern mysticism, classic philosophy, theology, new thought, and of course, romance. "it's all about love," he says, "love and appreciation for life, my own humanity, and that of those around me."

Here's what audience members have said about my performances:

"Chris's openness and vulnerability create an intimate evening of music, song, poetry, and storytelling. His wonderful artistic talents merge seamlessly as he interweaves them with his universal spiritual message. Spellbinding, affirming, touching, and present, Chris's artistic wizardry aligns his audience to a positive relationship with self and others. A truly joy-filled and magical evening."

"Oneness is the message that Chris Spheeris shares with his audience. In an honest, loving way he guides us through his spiritual awakening by way of his exquisitely inspiring music and humorous, poignant and delightfully irreverent storytelling. Chris dares remove his mask and invites us to do the same for what seems more like a group meditation than a concert. A wonderful experience!"

"That was an amazing performance. I cried the whole time you performed solo."

"Simply....Thank you, and your musicians, for last night's incredible journey. Your music transported me from the "everyday" into a place inside myself that I didn't know existed.
Your music brought me to tears a few times!  I go to concerts *all* *the* *time* and yours was probably one of the best ones I've ever seen!"
 
"I LOVED your concert last night. I was definitely transported to another relm. As far as I am concerned it was the best Christmas present ever."
 
"It was a privilege to be with the four of you and watch and feel the music and the love flow from you. I have never enjoyed a concert as much in my life. I think that the whole world needs to hear and see and experience what you performed last night."

"At times I felt like I was transported to another place.  I loved your interaction with one another and the gestures, smiles, and connection that you all have is just pure Love and Admiration."

"It was an evening of pure exhilaration and joy mixed with so much love.  We are still feeling the "HIGH"  vibration from your music.  It is like nothing I've ever experienced."

"WOW!!!! "AWE-some" performance in Sedona. Assuasive yet provocative...a renewed sense of the Muse, to dance and to be inspired once again, when I had forgotten."
