Burroughs brings his passion to all musical styles and melodies. By weaving them into a distinct percussive tapestry, he is in a constant state of evolving. Chris takes a metaphysical approach to percussion, always in the present moment, intuitively seeking a higher level. A non-conformist, he creates his own path.

Born and raised in Rockford, Illinois drummer/percussionist Chris Burroughs began playing at the early age of four. Music was not only encouraged in the Burroughs household, it was mandatory. “My Dad was a huge fan of all things artistic, especially music. Everyone was required to play a musical instrument and I chose the drums.” 

Over the course of his professional career, Chris has been blessed to tour and record with artist like: Dee Dee Bridgewater, Chris Duarte, Col. Bruce Hampton, Jennifer Holiday, Russell Gunn, Michelle Malone, Pat Bianci, Dionne Farris, just to name a few.
