  • Christopher Morris is a musician, singer/song-writer, guitarist and composer born in New York in 1946. He is also well known as an author and defense policy expert. Christopher Morris created the Christopher Morris Band, whose MCA album brought him international recognition on album-oriented radio stations, with eight out of nine songs receiving significant airplay. The album "Christopher Morris Band" included such talent as Vince Colaiuta, the Tower of Power Horn section; Emil Richards and Milt Holland, percussionists; and the Ron Hicklin Singers. Christopher Morris was one of the first creators of "fusion" music, a label given his work in 1977 by Ken Tucker in Rolling Stone Magazine. Christopher Morris was also the band leader for Al Kooper's "Act Like Nothing 's Wrong" 1976 tour. Morris's bands have consistently provided musical exposure to emerging talent, and have included such musicians as Vince Colaiuta (named Drummer of the Year for twelve consecutive years), Tim Landers, Leslie Kuipers, Ted Lo, Gerry Etkins, all of whom subsequently achieved musical notability. In 2010, Morris released his second album, "Everybody Knows," on Singing Horse Records, an album including "The Sacred Band March" which related directly to his fictional series of novels, "The Sacred Band," written with his wife, Janet Morris.
