Chris's Bio
Hey whatsup! I started playing guitar when I was 9 and right away started this amazing band with my friend called 'Toxic Waste'. every song was completely improvised on the spot and recorded into a cassette tape \m/
When I was 11 my dad taught me how to play the guitar with a pick instead of with my thumbs, and with the guitar standing up straight as opposed to flat on my lap.
When I was 14 I heard “Master of Puppets” by Metallica which basically blew my mind from start to finish. After that i became obsessed with metal and really anything with a cool guitar solo.
Joe Satriani? Yes. Metallica? Mmmmmhm. Dream Theater? hell freaking yes.
Started recording my own songs when I was 15 and just kept going from there. Now I have a YouTube Channel called Chris Snyder Guitar, two EPs called 'Outlook' and 'Against All Odds', and a crap load of singles you can find on spotify and everywhere else.
I graduated from Berklee with a Bachelor's in Guitar in 2020, which was bittersweet because I loved it there but was also excited to move on. I was one of the guitarists in Philadelphia-based hard rock band Pravda but now I'm a solo artist.
I'm pretty active on social media, especially Instagram. My username's @chris_snyder_guitar. Check it out and let's connect!!
