Chris Cooper - Rhythm Guitar:
Chris is a long time local musician in the Sierra Vista scene. His guitar playing style is deeply rooted in the '80's style of Cinderella, Skid Row, and Tesla just to name a few which makes him a perfect fit for the band. He brings a refresing energy and presence to the music that unmistakebly comes out in his playing. He stepped in and filled some big shoes after a change in the lineup left Here 4 Days searching for a new rhythm guitarist. We hope you'll enjoy hearing Chris play at future performances as much as we enjoy playing music with him!
