My guest today is Chris Kamzelas
A guitarist from Sydney, Chris first came onto my radar back in the early 2000s as he was part of the Australian Idol band. He was also in the first band of The Voice Australia. Since then he’s gone on to play with everyone! Back in 2019 we did a guitarists roundtable podcast which Chris was part of the panel.
Currently part of Russel Crowes band, The Gentleman Barbers, he also plays around town in The Rocking Byrds amongst others, and he has some new music out. A song he wrote about his father called Song for Angelo. Check it out. For more info on Chris, check out his Instagram and Facebook.
