Chris Heers
Chris Heers is a multi-award winning country-rock singer-songwriter Las Vegas Native. His songs have been featured in Movies, TV, XBox and Wii Country Dance Video Games, and on worldwide radio, charting several top 100 songs in the USA; even hitting number one in Europe. Chris has been twice nominated for best Indie country album, including best Americana song, "Leaning Into Barstow". He was also named 2015 Las Vegas Performer of the Year. You will find him headlining upwards of 250 shows per year in Las Vegas and throughout the Southwest; either as a solo act or performing with many friends. As if that wasn't enough, he will thoroughly entertain while performing with his bandmates; Seth Turner and Kent "KR" Farrell, together knows as "High Blue Cactus", a vocal powerhouse playing a variety show of their hit songs along with a range of covers, from classic country to hard rock.
Additionally, Chris is not afraid to promote his fellow musicians. He assembles one of the finest collections of musicians every Monday during the "Boulder Dam Songwriter Jam" event at Cleveland's - The Lounge. The event has been so well-met that you're almost unable to get in the door without a reservation!
"What Heers has that probably sets him off from the numerous contemporary country singers is a songwriting talent that is first calibre. Heers doesn’t just write songs about bars, cars, country roads and how bad he wants to party. Nope. He writes ballads, tales, stories in the Americana bent with a healthy capacity for clever lyrics."
