When I was nine years old, I innocently begged my parents for a guitar. As I grew older and realized that I loved to write music and sing, my dream quickly became apparent. I took every record I could find around my house, from Marvin Gaye to Bob Marley, and began to cover the sounds, adding many of the Caribbean beats I heard so often while I was in the Bahamas with my family.
By chance, a family friend introduced me to Pharrell Williams, who gave me my first career advice. I took it to heart and with the help of family, friends and now my great fans, I’ve begun touring the country and reached millions of you on YouTube. I can’t wait to see where this road takes me and I hope to see you out there soon!
My name is Cris Cab and according to my mom, I’ve been singing since I was born. I’m seventeen now and music is my passion. My favorite artists and bands include Bob Marley, Jack Johnson, Sublime and Coldplay. But I also like hip hop and rap, and they definitely influence much of the music I write today. It’s all good, you know what I mean? Miami is my home town and I can’t think of a better place to live than this sunny, warm paradise with all its great beaches and interesting people… heaven on earth.
