Album Notes

“On The Brink” is the first album by singer/guitarist Chris Delis. It features Chris’ vocals, strong songwriting skills and his virtuoso guitar playing. A transplanted Midwesterner to the east coast. Chris has always assimilated different musical styles and influences along the way. This translates into an eclectic style that is his own. From Jimi Hendrix to Jerry Reed to Albert King to Jeff Beck with some Wes Montgomery along with pop influences like the Eagles to Peter Gabriel, Seal, The Beatles and others Chris’ strong sense of melody and lyrical guitar playing translate into a unique listening experience. Often compared vocally to Don Henley he is right at home with an alternative edged song as well as a country pop tune.

Living in the NYC area for a number of years Chris has been busy as a session guitarist as well as a live performer. Most notably Chris has also played for the Broadway musical productions of “RENT,” the Who’s “Tommy,” Elton John’s “Aida,” and most recently the Elvis musical “All Shook Up,” and many others.

“On The Brink” was produced by Chris and Gary Georgett.

REVIEWS

Top Notch
author: Dean Coupland
Chris Delis is my favorite guitar player. His technical ability is unmatched on this planet, plus he was there with me when I first laid eyes upon my late dog, Chili. He tends to be a little paranoid in the woods when it comes to deer ticks but he more than makes up for that with his great sense of humor and effortless guitar style. If I was pressured with the threat of being water-boarded to lodge one complaint about Chris it would have to be the lack of Ozzy covers in his body of work. That minor flaw not withstanding, I whole-heartedly recommend "On The Brink" to anyone who appreciates fine guitar work.

Smokin' guitar playing, good songs and production. A great find.

If you are a guitar fan then pick up this new CD by Chris Delis. The album is strong from top to bottom. My personal favorites are Sunday Dreds, One Girl-One Guitar (love the gritty, bluesy vocal on this tune), Loney Feeling (catchy pop-rocker with a strong hook chorus)and Smokey. Do yourself a favor a pick up a copy of this album.
