About Chris
Chris Timbers is a Virginia-based singer-songwriter and guitarist whose music lives at the intersection of blues, rock, and soul. Drawing from a deep well of American roots music, Chris crafts original songs that are at once timeless and immediate — built on honest storytelling, expressive guitar work, and a voice that carries the weight of lived experience.
Over the years, Chris has built a devoted following throughout the Mid-Atlantic, performing everywhere from intimate listening rooms to high-energy festival stages. Whether performing solo, as an acoustic duo, with the CT3 trio, or fronting the full Chris Timbers Band, every show is a genuine connection between artist and audience.
His original music reflects a lifelong love of the craft — from the Delta blues that first sparked his passion for the guitar, to the classic rock and soul records that shaped his songwriting voice. Chris is currently finishing his Virginia EP, a collection of original songs pressed to vinyl that captures the spirit of the region he calls home.
Endorsed by Godin Guitars, Vintage Guitars, Silvertone Guitars, and SIT Strings, Chris brings the same commitment to quality to his gear as he does to his music. When he's not on stage, he's in the studio, writing, and always looking for the next great room to play.
"Chris Timbers is the real deal — a guitarist and songwriter with genuine soul."— Tad Kinchla, Blues Traveler
