Chris Kent was born into a music lovers family. From my mother's gospel records to my dad's smooth jazz. My oldest brother's R & B to my other brother's vocal jazz. Then my sister had her Top 40. I listened to it all!!!

Anyway, I was born in April of 1967 in Portland Oregon. I lived there all of my life until 1993 when my wife and I moved to Nashville, Tennessee. Just our Toyota, a U-Haul trailer and our cat Sally.

I started playing piano when I was in second grade. I hated piano! I never wanted to practice, and the silly songs that I had to play were never as hip as the songs on the radio. I stayed with piano for a few years. A friend down the street played drums. She would teach me different drum beats. My parents said no to a drum kit right quick! My next door neighbor had a guitar, the guy across the street had a guitar and another girl down the block played piano. So, I thought to myself, "If I played bass, we could start a band!" I was on a mission!

My next door neighbor tried his best to talk me out of it! "Chris, the bass player ALWAYS stands in the back. The bass player never gets the chicks, and NEVER EVER takes solos!!!" But I wanted to have a band so bad! When I was in fifth grade I asked Santa for a bass guitar. So Mom and Dad showed up with a slick, black electric bass from Montgomery Ward! AW YEAH BABY!!!! The funk was alive and well at the Kent house!!!

From the age of ten I played bass day and night. Soon, I was playing in the school bands, garage bands, top 40 bands, jazz bands, and even a metal band! YES! I can play some Maiden with the best of 'em!!! It was my senior year in High School when I realized that life was too hard without help from the Lord Jesus Christ. In 1985 I gave my life to Him!

I've had a pretty amazing life so far. It still blows my mind! The things that God has allowed me to do. And the things that He's brought me through! WOW! I truly love Him!!!

I've been married to the same wonderful girl since 1988! We've adopted two absolutely great kids! I've survived cancer, AND I get to do something that I love for a living! The Lord really loves me! And ya know what? He loves you too!

God Bless, Chris.
