Since he was a child he dreamed of representing Ireland in the Eurovision and now he is over the moon to be making this dream come true.
Chris' main interests are fitness and music, he is a fourth degree black belt and teacher of KickBoxing. He has won eight All-Ireland medals and countless competitions in the same sport. Chris values his good health and so does not smoke or drink. As a hard working lad, he likes to keep himself busy by performing in local clubs and pubs and teaching self-defence.
At the age of 6, Chris began playing piano but it wasn't until ten years later that he discovered he actually had a decent singing voice. He recently recorded an album which he wrote and arranged himself and cites his musical influences as being a mix of many sources; from Country to Reggae with some Rock and Jazz thrown in for good measure.
Chris was raised by his Mum, Margaret, as his Dad died when he was just a year old. He has 3 brothers and one sister and is currently single. |  | | |
