What's up Kitchiezzzz? If you've been to any blues, rock, soul or R&B shows in the tri city area in the last 25 years, then you have definitely seen Chris Latta. Chris got his start with the basics of Rock. A well versed education of Tony Iomi, Jimi Hendrix and Richie Blackmore, to name a few. When he was introduced to the blues, it opened up a pallet within Pandora's box and led to what has arguably been one of the most successful careers of a 'side man' that KW has ever seen, and for good reason. Chris is a chameleon and can fit in with just about anyone and is as versatile as they come. Strap in and listen to some of the stories that Chris has been a part of along the way.
