Chris Bathgate
The infectious indie rocker fleshes out his simple melodies and charming chord progressions with instrumental embellishments ranging from horns to strings. The strong backbone he gives his songs makes them as raw as they are nuanced. He has carried his Ann Arbor pride with him throughout his 18-year musical journey, often referencing his hometown in his lyrics.
