Chris was born and raised in Lancashire before studying bass trombone at the Royal Northern College of Music. During this time, he took part in different education projects which ignited his passion for working with children and young people. He graduated in 2015 with a BMus (Hons) in Performance and has since continued to perform alongside teaching and leading in different areas of music education. He is currently studying for a Certificate for Music Educators (CME) with the Manchester-based creative music charity, Brighter Sound.

As well as working with Future Talent, Chris is a Phase Lead at In Harmony Opera North and a tutor and ensemble music director with the Lancashire Music Service.

Chris is excited to be part of the ongoing growth at Future Talent and is looking forward to reaching out to more young musicians from the new Liverpool office.
