About Chris Garth

Chris Garth

Semi-Professional Guitarist, Drummer & Luthier

I have been a semi-professional guitarist, drummer, and multi-instrumentalist for well over 20 years, playing in a variety of bands all over Kent, and have toured the U.K. and Europe.

As well as being a seasoned live musician, I have recorded in a number of world-class studios, including legendary session recordings at Abbey Road and BBC's Maida Vale Studios.

Alongside my live performance and teaching work, I also record and produce my own music in my custom home studio in Rochester, Kent, and run professional setups and maintenance for guitarists throughout the area.
