This week Chris released his first full-length, major label album, Roads. I am very picky about the music I like. I like a lot of genres of music but as a classically trained vocalist myself, I dislike a lot of the music that is currently popular due to lack of musical talent. The music of Chris Mann is just the opposite. Chris is a talented classical crossover artist whose vocals are clean, crisp and spot on. Roads contains a mix of tracks from classical to classics and Mann approaches each song with his talented vocals and a passion most musicians never attain.

The Tracks

1. Roads-the title cut which speaks to the fact that we are all on a journey and there will be bumps in the road but we have to stay on the road that leads us home.
2. Need You Now-by Lady Antebellum is a passionate love song that is a great crossover for Mann.
3. Cuore-co-written by Mann and based on Bach’s “Air on a G String”, is a beautiful Italian love song
4. The Blower’s Daughter-featuring Christina Aquilera
5. My Way-The Frank Sinatra classic, whose lyrics were written by Paul Anka and reworked for Chris. This is the centerpiece of the album and gives this classic a new life for a new generation of listeners.
6. Unless You Mean It-a pop love song
7. Always on My Mind-The Willie Nelson classic recreated as a passionate song of love…and loss with Chris’ amazing vocals.
8. On A Night Like This-a song of young love
9. Ave Maria-The classical song has never been sung better, IMHO
10. Falling-a contemporary balled co-written by Mann
11. Viva La Vida-the Cold Play hit is masterfully reimagined by Mann

You can get Roads on iTunes or Amazon . I thoroughly enjoy the album and I think you will too.
