It's always fun listening to music from your car radio to something on those wireless Bluetooth headsets, but I still believe in putting on a Great Live Show for everyone to see as well as hear!

With me and my band to solo acoustic, I am currently expanding out to playing and performing other areas both in, around and outside of the South West of the UK.

During the lockdowns there were very few, if any, gigs at venues. During this time, I was often playing live streams. A number of recordings are available on Facebook, click here.

If you would like to see me play somewhere closer to you, or wish to make an enquiry for a booking, please get in touch!

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦Day 8 of Toronto!πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦- Open Mic at the well-talked-about Handlebar which was a fun night and surprisingly open for a long time! After hearing some awesome acts including a solo drum solo, some electric instrumental guitar and a ton of cool songwriters, I had to head for home. Not all places I know can still be awake at 3am midweek! πŸ€©πŸ€œπŸ€›πŸŽΆ Due to lack of light, Here’s a photo of me trying to pose in the around the open mic - looks like I’m about to do a scene for the opening of a movie! πŸ˜…πŸ‘πŸŽΆ#handlebarto #openmic #openmicnight #torontoopenmics #friendswithskills #originalmusician #lookafteryourgearanditwilllookafteryou #ChrisOstler #soloacoustic #6stringsandavoice #chrisostlersolo #ilovemyjob #britishartist #livemusic #chrisostlermusic ...
