Chris Orrock has been writing songs, singing and playing
guitar since age 14. Under the early tutelage of rockabilly pioneer,
Link Wray, Chris developed his own songwriting and musical directions
and has since performed primarily as a solo artist. He's also
contributed to a number of highly-regarded bands (Pacific, Tour De Force
and The Skytones.) Countless influences course through his music yet
the voice is his own. He has also recently won the prestigious 2012 Susanne Millsaps National Singer/Songwriter Showcase.
"His is the music you take along with you, it's stories and it's melodies, the listener is repeatedly rewarded."- Jan Stepworth, eMusicReview, 2010
"Chris Orrock is a rockabilly force who is shaking the Salt Lake Scene like an earthquake. Though he has played in many successful bands, his solo work has lurked quietly...until recently. His driving songs have received airplay and critical acclaim, and he placed second in the coveted Susanne Milsaps Performing
Songwriter Showcase in 2011. Go Chris!" Jen Hajj, KRCL Community Radio DJ, 2011
