Chris Louvieris a Greek Cypriot singer songwriter, born in London. My early influences were Jackson Browne, The Eagles, B.B. King. My style is a fusion of all these plus my own imput. Good friend Paul christodoulou writes most of the lyrics. The only other guy involved in the music is Mike (The Piano) Cherry, who plays all the keyboards and does all the string arrangements. The two of them now make up the band Lost White Brother, an instrumental band playing mainly down tempo Floyd sounding chillout music which you can here at www.myspace.com/lostwhitebrother.
Why this name?
It's simple, it's my real name
Do you play live?
We get together for the occasional gig. Last time we did so, was to play for a combined Greek and Turkish Cypriot audience in Famagusta for the reunification of our island.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Well it cuts out the big boys and allows people like us to get heard worldwide.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Hell Yes!!!!!!!!!!!
Band History:
Started off in a band with Paul called Philosopher Stone in the 70's. Toured Europe until we split up.
After a bad road accident I was unable to play guitar for years until I met up with an old musician friend who started me writing and recording my own songs.
