Chris



Over 15 years since first dazzling the contemporary jazz world with his breakthrough 1998 set Velvet, Chris Standring still revels in his restless creativity, discovering fresh, freewheeling and innovative ways to share his passion for groove, melody and dynamic guitarisma. 
 
Celebrating the remarkable milestone of album number Ten – an ever evolving catalog that includes the 2011 re-issue of his 1989 first indie recording Main Course (The Early Tapes) - he’s still got the cool, trippy sonics happening via a colorful fusing of live instrument and DJ sounds. But this time, while keeping his melodies, rhythms and arrangements as infectious as ever, the British born, L.A. based hit maker fashions them as the vehicle for him to unleash his deeper chops as a powerhouse jazz player and improviser. Soloing with a wild abandon he’s been holding back way too long, the longtime Benedetto endorsee introduces us to the latest love of his musical life, his new, gorgeous white Benedetto Bambino archtop jazz guitar.
 
Ten is driven by three key elements, those electronic DJ sounds and live instruments with Standring playing his jazz guitar on top. The consistent, seductive pockets are always foundational, so the album’s ten tracks feature those artists the guitarist felt could best convey the essence of the piece. Bassists Dan Lutz (acoustic) and Andre Berry (electric) pair perfectly from track to track with Chris Coleman, Dave Karasony and Sergio Gonzales. Dino Soldo handles the sly horn dips and swoops on the trippy electronic soul jam “Snake Oil” and the sly, atmospheric romance “Parisian Blue”. 
While Standring handles a lot of the keyboards and programming himself, he finds perfect guest spots for Rodney Lee (whose Hammond B-3 helps create an organ trio vibe on the hard driving soul-fusion “Like This, Like That”), Jim Wilson (who adds acoustic piano elegance to  the sensual and intimate “Carousel”) and Jeff Babko (who adds meditative depth to the easy shuffling “Magic Carpet Ride via his sparkling Fender Rhodes). 
 
The guitarist also continues his playful fling with the quirky but highly expressive talk box, which he used on two tracks of Don’t Talk, Dance! Peter Frampton, Joe Walsh and Standring's hero Jeff Beck, are masters, but it’s now a true jazz instrument thanks to Standring’s dynamic use of it on the mystical funk driven opener “Ready Steady Flow” and the big bottom mid tempo ballad “Soul Vibration. Rounding out the ten on Ten are the easy-flowing dance groove fired “Bossa Go Go” (with DJ scratch effects behind Standring’s thoughtful lead guitar soloing; the moody, old school soul-jazz seduction “A Piece of Cake”; and a dark and hauntingly ambient final reminder that it’s “Never Too Late.” 
 
After establishing himself as a popular mainstay in the contemporary urban jazz genre with infectious R&B driven hits like “Cool Shades” (from Velvet), “Hip Sway” (title track from his 2000 album), “Ain’t Mad Atcha” (2003’s Groovalicious) and “I Can’t Help Myself” (from 2006’s Soul Express), Standring decided it was time to push his muse into offbeat and uncharted territory. His appreciative fans, radio programmers and critics fully embraced Blue Bolero (whose single “Bossa Blue” was the #1 Billboard Contemporary Jazz Track of the Year) and Send Me Some Snow, an inviting holiday collaboration with award winning pop/folk singer/songwriter Kathrin Shorr. 

The guitarist grew up in the small town of Aylesbury in England, later studying at London College of Music (where he played with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra and received a Fellowship Diploma) and writing music for the BBC before moving to Los Angeles in February of 1991. After launching his recording career the traditional way, on established jazz labels, Standring started his own company Ultimate Vibe Recordings, on which he has released each of his albums since Love & Paragraphs in 2008. 

Standring writes in his liner notes for Ten: “I wanted to make an album that got my jazz rocks off but was still accessible to people who weren’t musicians. Reflecting deeper on his mission, he adds, “I wanted this to be a passionate record, with a mix of ballads and upbeat songs that people could get into, kind of like George Benson once did with Breezin’. The fun part for me was letting go on the guitar more than ever and challenging myself to play over more complex chord changes, creating the perfect combination of jazz styles, from bebop to classic soul-jazz, with contemporary urban vibes.”

Perfect combination? Sounds like a perfect Ten.
