Chris Merkley (Chenango Sessions)
Chris Merkley has performed more than a thousand shows, from the streets of Paris to venues throughout Europe and across the United States. He has released nine albums with a variety of groups, including the songwriting duo Merkley & Morgan; his high-octane Bluegrass and Country Blues globetrotting band, The Crooners; and the swampy blues-rock trio, Digger Jones. Merkleys most recent solo album, Momentos, was recorded in the early morning hours at the Homer Center for the Arts, a Baptist churchturned 400 seat theater. The bare acoustics of the empty theater proved the perfect setting for the intimate solo recordings of Merkleys blend of Americana, Folk, and Blues music. www.chrismerkley.com
In addition to his recording and touring career, Chris Merkley has composed and produced an extensive catalogue of original music for TV, and has had songs featured in several independent films. In 2008, he created a number of original compositions for HBOs critically acclaimed series, Generation Kill, and has since collaborated with Free Man Music and fellow Old Boy artists to compose custom original music for Cinemax, HBO Latino, and Max Latino.
