About Chris Emray
Singer | Songwriter
Chris Emray is giving the singer-songwriter genre a new twist. With a focus on his extraordinary voice he is combining heart-felt lyrics with dynamic rock sounds. This juxtaposition makes Chris Emray’s music melancholic and uplifting at the same time. He plays around with analog synths, as well as his vintage piano, going for an authentic sound rather than a polished poptune, following his heart rather than producing a calculated product. Chris wants to make music that gives the listener a sense of hope in an ever-changing world.
Catch a glimpse of Chris Emray’s lyrics:
„Rest your head on my shoulder, forget about the world for a while.
Soon this life will be over, at least we’ll go with a smile.
So much weight on your shoulders, take a step back for me.
Soon this life will be over, and I’d rather die happy.“
(„Die Happy“, 2023)
Emray has opened the stage for none other than Eric Clapton at the biggest venue in Austria wowing more than 11.000 music fans. If he’s not touring the world he’s asked to duet with Mans Zelmerlöw, Eurovision Song Contest winner, on stage. He was nominated as GoTVs Act of the Year and legendary music producer Christian Kolonovits named Emray one of the emergent songwriter’s of the year, and noted that he was “someone to watch” in the Austrian music scene.
