Chris Basener is a guitarist, composer, producer and instructor who plays instrumental groove rock with vibrant melodies that speaks to the cosmopolitan music fan as much as the guitar community.

While captivating melodies are always the main focus of his songs, it is not unusual to hear exotic sounding scales next to some country-chicken-picking followed by a gentle and passionate ballad or a driving rock instrumental, that makes you want to punch your fist in the air.
What ties all of these elements together are the memorable melodies and the engaging song writing.

But with all this colourful diversity, Chris never loses sight of his roots, which are founded in good old rock music – or in other words:
He's got one foot in the stratosphere and the other one on planet rock!
