Chris Jagger & Elliet Mackrell

Chris’s career has spanned many fields in the artistic spectrum, from clothes design and theatre to journalism. He appeared in
repertory at The Citizen’s Theatre in Glasgow (his first play there was with one Pierce Brosnan), Nottingham Playhouse and the
ICA in London as well as in TV and film. He has written for various magazines and newspapers including The Daily
Telegraph, The Guardian, the Mail on Sunday and Rolling Stone.

His first records were made during the 1970’s for David Geffen of Asylum in Los Angeles and he toured the USA and the UK. He
revitalised his song writing in the late 1980’s after a long break and helped brother Mick out on the Stones acclaimed albums
“Dirty Work” and then later “Steel Wheels.” Chris decided to then concentrate on his own material and the result was the critically acclaimed Sequel C.D. ‘Atcha!’ in 1994, a mix of Cajun style with Chris’s individual brand of song writing. Acclaimed and respected music critic Tony Parsons in the

Telegraph compared his lyrics to those of the famed Sammy Cahn. Contributions came from David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) and
Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) on ‘Lhasa Town and Leo Sayer. Chris and his band appeared on the Conan O’Brien Show for NBC.

Elliet Mackrell is a virtuoso on the violin but adds the added dimension of low bass sounds with her various pedals and ear catching effects to broaden the whole experience. Elliet has played on various film sessions and recording dates with Gong, Billy Bragg and her other band Kangeroo Moon.
