Chris White

Derby-born Chris was first awakened to the joyous possibilities of music when he received a copy of Paul McCartney & The Frog Chorus's We All Stand Together in his Christmas stocking. After brief flirtations with Duran Duran and Curiousity Killed The Cat, he soon progressed to The Smiths, R.E.M. and the much-maligned shoegazing scene before succumbing to the Britpop juggernaut during his misspent university years. Nowadays, Chris lives in south London and is an internal communications manager by trade as well as a freelance writer for musicOMH and BBC Music among others. Current musical favourites include Belle And Sebastian, Fleet Foxes, Sigur Ros, Anna Calvi, Beach House, The Antlers, TV On The Radio, I Am Kloot, The Clientele, Vampire Weekend, John Grant and Bellowhead, although his all-time holy trinity of The Beatles, Bob Dylan and Neil Young remain undimmed by the passage of time.
