Chris is a true icon of Australian comedy. With his quintessential Aussie persona, complete with a flannel shirt and thongs, he embodies the spirit of the average Australian. His comedy, reminiscent of the legendary Paul Hogan, delves into the core themes of beer, sports, and relationships. Impressively, Chris even scored a number 1 hit single with "Bloke," despite his self-professed lack of singing talent.
Over his illustrious career, Chris has shared the stage with comedy giants like Jimeoin, Carl Barron, Anh Do, and Dave Hughes, as well as international music stars such as Santana and Elvis Costello. His versatility has seen him perform everywhere from prestigious comedy clubs to the front bar of local pubs, and even on five "Tours of Duty" to entertain Australian troops in locations like East Timor and Afghanistan.
Chris's global performances have taken him to Scotland, Singapore, Hong Kong, and beyond. Revered by fellow comedians as one of the best in the industry, he effortlessly connects with audiences whether at a corporate event, a country football club, or any venue in between. His ability to captivate and entertain is unmatched, making him a beloved figure in the world of comedy.
