He became a massive hit throughout Europe, selling millions of records worldwide Chris’s early musical influences were Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Buddy Holly & Lonnie Donegan. And later the 60’s beat groups, in particular The Beatles, were a huge influence on Chris. He formed a band at school and played all over the UK in the late 60s and early seventies. By 1974 they became ‘Smokie’. They had a string of hit singles and albums and Chris also made a duet with Suzi Quatro, “Stumblin’ In” which gave him his first taste of success outside the group. Chris’s solo career took off in 1986 with the song, ‘Midnight Lady’. Since then he has recorded over 20 solo albums and with his live band has toured extensively all over the world. Next year in March he will release a brand-new album called ‘Lifelines” Chris explains: My New Album ‘Lifelines’ has given me a great opportunity to visit the different periods of my life and sing songs which have a strong emotional connection to me throughout my musical career. Now to celebrate my 75th birthday and over 50 years in the music business, I have chosen some special songs - the Lifelines of my life. I hope they bring back some great memories for you too. The first single ‘Lifelines’ is a brand new song written about past memories and experiences of my life and career which bring back the strong emotions in the way that only music can do.
