Chris Payn is a UK rock frontman, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist renowned for his powerful vocals, high-energy performances and natural connection with an audience.
Performing professionally since the age of eight, Chris has built a career rooted in live music, playing hundreds of shows each year across the UK and internationally. From performing at the Royal Albert Hall at just 12 years old to appearing in front of more than 60,000 people at the Red Bull Air Race (with 'Heaven’s Basement'), his career has seen him share stages and work alongside an extraordinary range of musicians, including Ben Waters (Rolling Stones, Cher, Chuck Berry), Chris Jagger, Frank Ferrer (ex Guns N’ Roses), and members of The Who, Status Quo and Nine Below Zero to name a few.

This will be a landmark night for Chris Payn, celebrating the release of his first ever EP 'The Wait', released under his own name. The new record will be performed in full, alongside a selection of other original material, with Chris joined on stage by the incredible musicians of his band 'The Parade', bringing the songs to life with a full-band sound.

Expect big vocals, huge energy and a proper rock ’n’ roll night as Chris Payn & The Parade take over The Brook for a very special celebration of the release and the beginning of an exciting new chapter.
