Chris Mike's long-anticipated album "Socialholic" is OUT NOW. A melting pot of hipster, progressive metal, ambient, rock, and disco all in a sprinkle of well-crafted guitar playing in the style of John Petrucci, Steve Vai, and Guthrie Govan.

"It's been a while since I released new original music of mine and I'm very excited about that. Throughout these years I developed my playing and my compositional/arrangement skills to reflect the personality I am right now!" -CHRIS MIKE

Chris Mike (Christos Michalis) born on May 3rd, 1985, is a guitar player, as well as a session and touring musician. He grew up in a small suburban town near Athens, Greece, where he began playing guitar at age 11.

He is a Candyrat Records/JTC Guitar artist and endorses Ernie Ball Music Man, Victory Amps, Elixir Strings, Crazy Tube Circuits, and Richter Straps.

The virtuoso returns with his new single "Limerence" that fuses spanky distorted tones with synth brass – to our ears, the resultant sound brings to mind a djent Toto. Chris Mike’s chops on "Socialholic" album are as impeccable as ever, wringing a wealth of tasteful articulations!
