Chris KEATS.

The Brighton born, 21st century folk - pop raconteur and world traveler writes songs to heal both his audience and himself. He is a solo singer-songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist inspired by his harmonica-playing grandfather.

Following Chris’ mother’s suicide he promised himself he would work every single day to be a better guitarist, singer, songwriter and human being. He has never looked back.

Citing Damien Rice, Ray Lamontagne, Ben Howard and Neil Young as his major influences, he is backed predominantly on guitar, describing his songwriting as a “natural process” turning his “stream of consciousness into melodies.”

Chris released 6 singles between September 2020 & June 2021. He released his debut EP, When The Sails Collapse, As Live, on October 8th 2021. After some forced time away from music to focus on his mental health he returns with a year of new releases. 2025 begins with a series of Bob Dylan cover songs to coincide with the release of A Complete Unknown starring Timothée Chalamet.

This will be followed by a Christmas EP in late 2025. A deluxe release of his first EP will come out in early 2026, followed by his 2nd EP in mid 2026…
