Hi. My name is Chris Zabriskie and I make records. I live and work in Orlando, Florida. I was once in a band called Struggleburger, and I've also been a part of Marc with a C, lo-fi is sci-fi, The Gala Luncheon, and Soft Rock Champion. Some of my albums are instrumental, some are not. I sing when I have something to say.
You can purchase my albums or download them for free right here on this website. If you like the music and want to contribute, but don't need anything physical, you can also donate an amount of your choosing via PayPal, but please don't feel guilted into it. Any CD purchases are shipped to you by me personally, and usually include a little drawing of some kind. And any purchase of any kind that you make supports me and my music directly (no labels, no middle-men).
I do not play live very often, and when I do, it's usually in the Orlando area. I'm a single father and travel and touring for long periods of time is usually difficult. However, if you'd like me to play in your country or town, or for any booking inquiries, please don't hesitate to contact me.
If you're interested in keeping up with what's new, you can follow me on Twitter. I also have accounts on MySpace, Last.fm, iLike, thesixtyone, Flickr, YouTube, and Steam. I'm sorry, but I don't use Facebook. If you'd like to add my music to your Facebook profile, you can do so with the iLike application.
