American Rock Artist Kris Bell blends captivating melodies with powerful guitar hooks, creating a bold, modern sound for today’s Rock and Adult Contemporary markets. Born and raised in San Diego, CA, Kris Bell began playing guitar at age seven and to this day, it has been the backbone of his journey through life, love, and music. After moving to Nashville, TN in 2005, Kris was quickly hired as the Lead Guitarist for American Idol star Bo Bice.

For the next two years, he performed on numerous national TV programs, toured the country, recorded on a major label record and was featured in a number one music video on MTV and VH1. In 2007, Kris began pursuing a solo career, bringing his “American Rock” style to new fans from Georgia to California and building a dedicated following throughout the country. His music has been showcased on Nashville’s 102.9 The Buzz, WRFN Radio Free Nashville, Live @ 9 Morning Show in Memphis, TN, The Longtown Sound, FM102x, The Rock & Roll Report, and many other internet podcasts.

Currently Kris is wrapping up production of his new record, ‘Turn it On, Turn it Up’, at Wilderside Studios in Nashville with engineer Geoff Koval. “This record will highlight all the elements of who Kris is as a Guitarist/Singer/Songwriter.” It’s dynamic range of high-octane Rock anthems and heart wrenching power ballads seem to transcend the barriers of age and race, bringing the listener along with passionate storytelling wrapped in strong, melodic hooks and powerful guitar driven grooves. He tops his songs off with fiery guitar solos reminiscent of legends ranging from Clapton to Slash, but with his own signature flare of smooth and bluesy cries capped with intense and ferocious jamming.

With a new album set to drop this year, Kris is poised and ready to make 2010 a year of new opportunities, new fans, and Rock ‘n Roll! Experience the music of Kris Bell and the sound of today’s new American Rock Artist.
