* "Multi-layered, intelligent writing - at one moment thought provoking & bittersweet, the next off beat & uniquely humorous" - film composer David Raksin
* "Broad in scope yet focused in craft, Anderson paints a series of vivid pictures: each complete of themselves, stirring & provacative as a group" - Frank Zappa pianist Tommy Marrs

Award winning film & TV composer Chris Anderson has had successes in every arena of his composing career. His 30+ film scores range from full orchestral scores to roots & swing to avant jazz and pop. Equally at home with an orchestra, a funk band or a Javanese Gamelan, Anderson is a proven musical chameleon.
In addition to his film & television credits, Chris is an adept multi-instrumentalist and producer for many Americana-roots projects. Well known throughout the scene as ''Whitey'', he has been a featured guest artist for Grammy winner Dave Alvin, Rosie Florez, Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys, as well as his own side-project, ''The Lucky Stars'', with whom he has two CDs. He has produced several indie releases, including his own ''Sepiatone'', an original CD of his eclectic instrumentals.
