This ain't your run of the mill singer-songwriter.
Drawing on his love of the ragtime guitar styles of the early country blues masters along with
the “thumb-picking” style of Merle Travis and Chet Atkins and the finger-picking style of Leo
Kottke and others, Chris has developed a unique guitar style and sound of his own.
When it comes to his songwriting, he blames his early influences. The people that were the
inspiration to get him to put a pen to paper in the first place. Folks like John Prine, Shel Silverstein, Guy Clark,
Tom Waits, Roger Miller, Kris Kristofferson, The Beatles, Bob Schneider are just a few of the many
artist's that prompted Wolf's inner songwriter to get out and be heard. And just as diverse as his
influences are, so too, are the songs that he creates making it difficult to put a label on his
style. It's just Chris Wolf Songs.
