Boo! That was the name of this South African's previous band. In the meantime, the versatile Chris Chameleon has also been soundly launched as a solo performer, with 4 CDs already, with especially the latest 'Ek Vir Jou' as jewel (and out here on the alert Excelsior label – see too: Fixkes and Spinvis!)
This singer-songwriter does it in English and South-African, with a charismatic stage personality and a staggering voice with a range of four octaves. The prizes and CD sales are piling up in his homeland but high praises resound here too: ‘The man really is a magnificent singer, has a fantastic range. This is an exceptional talent.’ (OOR); ‘Chameleon sings so warmly and his subtle, African influenced music is so impassioned that he effortlessly carries you away to a distant, other world.’ (ALGEMEEN DAGBLAD); ‘Ek Vir Jou is especially written to entertain. Something this chameleon succeeds well in.’ (REVOLVER);
Maybe you already saw Chris at work with Stef Kamil Carlens or with Spinvis or at a previous Dranouter? Know that many of his 'songs' have already even been translated by Gerrit Komrij!
The latest album 'Ek Vir Jou' is the first official Benelux release. The album is bursting with fine African-language songs and is a concept album that describes love, from first sight up to and including separation. Dis ek vir jou en jy vir my ne?
