Singer/Songwriter, Chris Van Cott picked up his first guitar at the age of 6 and has been hooked ever since. At 13, he won middle school Composer of the Year for completing a full-length album entitled, "Premier Collection." He then went on to graduate from Five Towns College of Music and Audio Engineering in Long Island, NY.
In 1998, he formed Other Natural Flavors, also known by their fans as, ONF. As the lead singer and guitarist, he explored the world of alternative pop music by blending sweet vocal harmonies with an edgy rock sound. Chris' zeal for adventure led him to the West Coast to record ONF's debut album, "Drop the World." It received extensive college radio airplay and a licensing deal with MTV networks. However, it was the band's live shows, lead by the energetic singer, which won over many critics in New York and San Diego alike.
Chris Van Cott's experiences have helped him develop as a storyteller. His first solo effort, "Little Puppy," is a collection of acoustic tunes that combine styles & tales from both coasts. His influences include Steve Poltz, Jason Mraz, & Dave Matthews to name a few. Now back in New York, he has created a buzz for his emotional and expressive live performances. Recently, UMO Music selected Chris as one of "The 14 Best Singer/Songwriters of Greenwich Village". The compilation CD featuring all the artists is available at www.cdbaby.com.
Be sure to catch him at a coffee house near you.

Good Stuff!!
author: ShenkI liked this disc from the first track to the last. "Got me", got me hooked. An excellent tune. Little Puppy easily made my rotation in my disc player at home and my Ipod when I travel. Good stuff, can't wait for the next album!
Good choice!
author: LindaI was on cdbaby.com checking out the $5 cd special they have going on and I needed one more cd in order to get the deal. So I randomly searched through the thousands of cd's they had on sale and came across this one. (I think it was the dog on the cover that attracted my attention first. haha) I listened to some of the songs and really enjoyed them so I decided to get the cd. Although I've only heard 2 minute clips of about 4 or 5 of the songs I have a feeling I'm gonna really enjoy the cd. So far I already love Candy Canes, My Favorite and Honey. I can't wait till hear the whole cd!
I'm loving all the songs!
author: RachelI received the cd yesterday and after listening to it I gotta say that I'm really enjoying it! It'll be a while before I can pick a favorite song but right now I'm really enjoying "My Favorite", "On The Island", "SD Songwriters", "Upon Arrival" and "Candy Canes". Actually, screw that, I'm loving all the songs!
Worth My Brain Power
author: BrandonIn most of today's popular music, lyrics are an afterthought to the hook and beat. But Little Puppy is full of songs that are as intelligent as they are catchy. I'm glad a freind introduced me to this disc and a type of music that I'd normally pass by. The title track, Upon Arrival, Got Me, Up to You, My Favorite...I can't keep this CD out of my player! I'm hoping to find a follow-up sometime soon.
I'm glad I took a chance on this one....
author: LeeJack Johnson meets Jack White. I love it when songs tell a story and this CD does just that. Great lyrics, great guitar work, great melody! These songs will stay with you...In a good way. Do yourself a favor and get this CD.
