About Us
Just a couple of guys, living in a society...making music.
Dan and Chris have been best friends since middle school and had their first performance together in this format during their time in high school. After college, the duo decided it was time to take the next step and officially form Dan & Chris. Since then, history has been made performing hundreds of public gigs at restaurants, bars, breweries, variety shows, and even on TV. Venues have been in their native North Jersey but as far as the Jersey Shore, Upstate New York, and Long Island. Recently, the pair have been performing for private events as well including birthdays and other celebrations.Â
Dan P.
Dan serves as keyboardist, vocalist, and saxophonist for the duo. Performing since the age of 12, Dan has studied music at numerous different levels and has performed in many different groups in the contemporary, classical, and musical theater realms. During the week, Dan is a music educator in New Jersey and enjoys cooking tasty meals when he is home. Â
Chris W.
Chris performs on guitar and vocals. Starting on drum set since the age of 5, music has always been a part of Chris.
