Chris & Mike: The Influences Behind the Music
When it comes to writing music, Chris and Mike don’t just chase trends — they pull from real life, raw emotion, and the artists that shaped them.
🎸 Chris finds inspiration in pain, redemption, and storytelling, drawing from legends like Johnny Cash, Layne Staley, and Chris Cornell — writing lyrics that hit hard and mean something.
🥁 Mike brings the groove and grit, with influences like Dave Grohl, John Bonham, and even jazz and funk, crafting rhythms that move the body and stir the soul.
Together, they build songs that are honest, emotional, and unapologetically real.
🎶 It’s not just about sound — it’s about connection.
