CHRIS DANIELS

ASSISTANT PROFESSOR AND MUSICIAN CHRIS DANIELS AND HIS GROUP CHRIS DANIELS AND THE KINGS' MUSIC IS SLATED TO PREMIER ON THE ABC HIT "MEN IN TREES"

For nearly 20 years, Daniels and his band have entertained local music fans with a mix of jump blues, blue-eyed soul, and horn-infused rock. This past fall, the ABC TV show Men In Trees is using a recording of the The King's song, "Choo Choo Cha Boogie" for a dance number on the TV show #18! The date of the airing of the show is yet to be set.

Chris has toured Europe more than 15 times and played in the States from South Carolina to Seattle, New York City to LA. The seven piece rockin' band, called "funky-blues" by the Europeans, is an all out "horn band" celebrating their 23rd year of making great R&B, funk, "jump blues," and rock ‘n’ roll. They have been compared to"Little Feat with horns" and "John Hiatt meets Tower of Power."
