Sounds from the Sunnyside - last updated 23rd October 2026

Performing with 'The World Service', a Northampton based band many moons ago.

After playing in rock bands since his twenties and owning a 24 track recording studio in London during the 1980's, Chris is still playing guitar and singing in a couple of local bands The Rocking Revs and Smuggler Jack. 

'Sounds from the Sunnyside' is a Radio Show that Chris records for Radio HLR (radioHLR.com). Its a two to three hour music show playing records from the last sixty years - rock, pop, folk, country, jazz, gospel, reggae and church music. At present he is creating a series called 'iPodAtoZ', playing records he has downloaded onto his iPhone/Pad over the years. Each week he plays 30 songs or instrumentals in alphabetical order, which makes for quite an eclectic mix of music. It's a series that may run until Christmas!
