Grandpa,
Chris at 3ish & Dad

Around 1983, he began doing the cover songs of singer/songwriters
Neil Young, Arlo Guthrie, Dan Fogelburg, et al. A stint with the Renaissance Fairs kept him in touch with his Irish heritage.
Cutting out in his own direction, he began his own songwriting in ‘86. He put together a duo and then a trio as he wrote dozens
of tunes and his music evolved. Chris wore a number of different hats, as he does today and served as the manager, booking
agent, publicist, etc. Currently, you will find Chris travelling back and forth from Perdido Key and his place in Frank
Brown Songwriter’s Fest or to the Space Coast of Florida. Often he is headed to the Blue Ridge in Western NC with musical
visits to surrounding areas and where you can enjoy his playing in the mountains from where a great deal of his music is
rooted. You’ll find more about Chris and his twenty-eight years in music world at various web sites - chrismccune.com, myspace.com/chrismccuneacousticmusic,
