“Consummate professional. Poetry set to music”
Wherever I lay my hat, that’s my home; and from the moment Chris Milner – Journeyman popped his hat and coat onto the stand on stage that’s exactly how it felt, being asked to bring some wine definitely helped! Experience counts and Chris never put a foot wrong as he strummed his two guitars and sang his lyrical, sometimes humorous songs on subjects including teenagers, romantic break up, vain successful singers and the deep comfort he has derived from his guitar. (Buxton Fringe Review 2021)
