2006, No Alternative
Chris Volpe captivates audiences with his master guitar playing and soulful voice. Through his songs, Volpe tells haunting tales of American experiences--from giving up everything and everyone you know to move to New York City in 'Jersey Sun,' to feeling lost in this vast country in 'Refugee Blues,' the title track of Volpe's most recent CD. He won the studio time to record Refugee Blues when he was awarded 'best song' at the West Coast Songwriting Association's contest. All 15 songs on the CD were recorded live in one take, with no overdubs, editing, or effects--a stellar recording feat--which only adds credence to Volpe's innate music abilities.
