We are continually amazed and impressed by the awesome talent of our PhotoBizzers and all that they contribute to our community. Many of you share your beautiful images with us and we love to provide an opportunity to show them off. Recently, a PhotoBizzer from “Down Under” shared some of his music and there are now 11 of Chris Alderdice’s songs available in our Music Bank.

Chris Alderdice is a musician from New Zealand who creates guitar driven instrumental tracks and has shared eleven of his songs for our Music Bank. “I have always loved both photography and making music, and over the years I have written and recorded numerous songs and instrumental guitar driven tracks,” said Chris. “I am very excited about PhotoBiz making my music available to its customers as I do believe that music and images create an enhanced experience for the audience, and when a complimentary piece of music is added as a backing track the pictures can take on a new a new meaning.”

He plays all the instruments on the tracks (except drums), and earned first prize in a pacific song writing contest for the guitar solo on his song ‘Rest in Me’.  His biggest music influences are U2, INXS, Joe Satriani, and Eric Clapton.  

When asked what inspires him Chris says,  “I like to think that somehow my emotions are transferred and captured into my songs, just like the magic that can occur in the world of photography.”
