Chris Harper

I’m a multi-instrumentalist with decades of professional stage experience as a keyboardist, guitarist, backing vocalist, and occasional harmonica player. I’m adaptable to most stages, and I currently perform across a variety of successful tribute shows, cover bands, trios, and duos. Current Projects Include: ELO Tribute (6-piece band) Beach Boys Tribute (5-piece band & trio formats) Frankie Valli Tribute (6 piece – nominated for Best Vocal Group 2017) The Waves (Cover band available as a 5-piece, 4-piece, trio and duo) Career Highlights & Heritage: My career kicked off in the 1980s original rock scene with bands like Lie Detectors, Sidetrack, and Obsession. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting Australian rock royalty—including Cold Chisel, The Divinyls, Sunnyboys, Mondo Rock, and The Radiators—as well as international legends like Eric Burdon, Steppenwolf, and Billy Preston. I also played keys for Swanee and was in the MO Award winning showband The Fugitives. Trusted by Top Venues: I have entertained crowds at Sydney's most iconic venues and events, including Selinas, Hayden Orpheum, The Orient Hotel, Panthers Penrith, Rooty Hill RSL, Bankstown Sports Club, Glen Street Theatre, The Hilton, QVB, Centrepoint Tower, and outdoor festivals at Hyde Park, Dubbo, Coogee, and Dee Why Beach, plus premier regional theatres like Wyong Arthouse and Laycock Street Theatre.
