Had a great weekend and thouroughly enjoyed playing in The Queens on saturday night. A great priviledge to support Dan Arborise (sorry about spilling beer on your guitar....DOH!)

Got invited to play at Woody Bay Station on the Sunday afternoon with my band, went astonishingly well considering I was nursing a hangover!

Thanks to all those involved!

Chris Millington is a musician based in North Devon.

 Having been dragged up through the Manchester Indie scene and various bands, Chris has now found his niche. Inspired by the beautiful north Devon coastline and local stories of smuggling, wrecking and piracy along the North Devon coast, Chris has penned some moving songs in the hope and with the passion of keeping some of these stories alive.

 

Recently described as the ..'wild eyed boy of Exmoor..' Chris combines the traditional with the contempory singing songs of the sea, the past and the heart.

A multitalented multi instrumentalist Chris feels at ease with anything from the guitar to squeezebox, from mandolin to sitar. This diversity of influences and instruments compliments his compositions and accompanied by a voice that ranges from raucous Bowie-esque vocal to the haunting choral arrangement of the Liberame Domine at the end of the enchanting 'Who Will Cut Me Down?"
