"Hidden Everywhere" is the latest recording by singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/producer Chris Rosser. Hailing from the mountains of Asheville, NC, Chris Rosser is the winner of the 2000 Rocky Mountain Folks Festival songwriter contest and has showcased at the Kerrville Folk Fest and the Falcon Ridge Folk Fest.
In addition to playing guitar (in some very strange tunings!), he plays jazz piano and has studied Hindustani classical music with world-renowned Indian musician, Ali Akbar Khan. He also performs as a member of the world/jazz fusion trio Free Planet Radio, and tours as a keyboardist in the ensemble of master Turkish musician Omar Faruk Tekbilek. He is perhaps best known as a songwriter however - Dirty Linen described his songs as "lovely homages to the experience of being alive and human."
"Chris' songs are good medicine. Kind and heartfelt and beautifully written." --David Wilcox
"What evolved planet did this person drop in from? It gives one pause when someone so talented and unique is also so unassuming. Just watching Chris play, whether on stage or in the song circle at night, I learned things, some of which were about music. How he carried himself, his hand position, the way he approached the strings, how he laid down his signature grooves, his vocal tone and intonation, all these were singularly Rosserfarian, to beg a word."
--Frank Goodman, puremusic.com

Somebody make this guy famous, will ya?
author: Al Schlimm
Chris is for real. I've been a musician for 40+ years, and I've rarely encountered a writer/musician with this much goin' on. Great player/multi-instrumentalist, huge ears, great feel, pro studio chops, beautiful sensitivity and soul... And he's a real nice guy to boot. Hope to work with you again soon, Chris. In the meantime, I'll be giving your CDs to friends for Christmas. Later...

A musician's Musician and a poet's Poet!

This CD showcases Chris Rosser's continually evolving musicianship in so many ways-the melodies, the arrangements, and the range of instruments that he can play! His wordsmithing also continues to amaze and takes you through many heart-felt places. Enjoy the journey!

More Piano, Less Guitar
author: Ollie
On Day One, I haven't loved this as much as his ARCH but maybe in a week or two? He's doing more piano work on this one, and hits a couple of personal songs that I do not believe he's approached before (BOY WITH and HOW MUCH). Considerably more riveting, those. Since I tend to enjoy artists who migrate over their careers, this "more piano" adds to the interest level.
