Chris Chard's music blends bass grooves, memorable melodies, and mixes influences from all genres to weave a tapestry of relaxing vibe songs. Chris is a bass player, composer, and multi-instrumentalist who enjoys time performing on stage just as much as creating in the studio and is constantly minding the balance of music, work, and family.
In 2023 Chard released his second album, the space groove-inspired "Luxury Galaxy", an interstellar collection of funky and futuristic songs. "Luxury Galaxy" is a follow up to Chard's first release as a solo artist, 2019's "For the Fighters" which came out just as the world was entering a pandemic. New music for better times!
BMI writer, publisher, producer, instructor, and session player, Chris Chard has been entrenched in the Portland music scene for over 20 years. He is on his second album as a solo artist and has played on or been a part of production for over 25 recordings and with indie and major label artists all around the world.
Focus on the feel and the rest will work itself out.
