Drive On
This EP was an experiment of Chris Collat trying to branch out to some new feels of genre’s. This is part of his magic which is to branch out to being diverse as a musician. This was also done as a collaboration with his Dream Team. There is something spectacular about having chemistry with the talented musicians.
Miles Away
This album started out as a collaboration from musicians all over the states on a single tune called Virginia. Before I knew it, we had 10 tracks ready. This album, “Miles Away”, was released in May 2021 and is a perfect example of what comes together when you’re collaborating with a Dream Team.
The Chris Collat Band
Chris was the frontman of Washington DC-based band the Chris Collat Band (CCB) for several years. They performed some of the most prestigious venues in the DC area with their cinematic funk style, including the 9:30 Club, The Fillmore Silver Spring, Jammin Java, and IOTA Club and Cafe.
Chris also leads the Chris Collat Project, which regularly gigs with a rotating selection of musicians.
