About Me
CHRIS SAMUEL
Chris Samuel was born in the United States in 1994, but moved to Switzerland at a young age, where he grew up in Aargau and later in Bern.
During his school days he discovered his love for music, learned to play the guitar and piano and was a member of various bands.
Together with Swedish producer and guitarist Andreas Eriksson he released four singles in 2020, including Bleed, Stay, So High and Fallen Skies.
Stay achieved national attention from some prominent radio stations, which was followed by concerts and festival appearances throughout Switzerland.
In terms of musical style, Chris Samuel can be categorized as pop, folk and folktronica.
He often uses acoustic instruments - especially stringed instruments - and combines them with EDM and electronica/dance elements.
Chris Samuel performs with a band or as a solo artist, using a loop pedal and sampler to record different sound loops live, superimposing them and creating beats, melodies and harmonies.
