   About Chris Chameleon
Chris Chameleon is currently being hailed as a phenomenon on the South African Music front. His exceptional four- octave voice work and dynamic stage personality has won him rave reviews and a total of fourteen impressive awards over the past three years, including a SAMA (South African Music Award) and a Medal of Honor from the SA Academy of Science and Arts as well as 2 platinum and 1 gold selling albums and 1 gold selling DVD.

Background in brief

In 1997, Chris Chameleon became the bassist and front man of one of South Africa’s proudest musical exports, Boo!. In 7 years Boo! acquired an enormous following worldwide by performing 800 gigs in 17 countries, including 14 states in the USA. The band also received a South African Music Award in 2002 for ‘Best Pop Album.’

After Boo! disbanded in 2004, Chris Chameleon embarked on a solo career and has since become one of South Africa's most successful artists, both on home ground and in the Benelux Countries.

Chris Chameleon has released 5 solo albums between 2005 and 2008. Four of these albums were nominated for the prestigious South African Music Awards (SAMA) in the years relevant to the release dates. “7de Hemel” won the SAMA for Best Afrikaans Contemporary Album in 2007.

Chameleon has also released 3 live DVD's up to date. These DVD's have perfectly captured why Chameleon is renowned for the incredible versatility of his endless creative endeavors. He moves with remarkable ease between Afrikaans and English, Contemporary, Rock and Classical.

In August 2007, Chris Chameleon signed a record deal with the premier independent label in the Netherlands, Excelsior Recordings. The album Ek vir Jou is being distributed by Excelsior Recordings in the Benelux countries (The Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.)

Chameleon has completed various successful tours in the Benelux Countries in 2007 and 2008. One of the highlights overseas was in late 2008 when Chris performed in 15 of The Netherlands’ most prestigious theatres. The tour ended on a particularly high note with a sold out show at the famous Kleine Komedie in Amsterdam.

Chris Chameleon’s talents are not limited to performance and songwriting as he has written monthly columns for both the country’s top music magazine Stage, and the thought provoking magazine called Insig and is currently writing a biweekly column for national newspaper Beeld. As an actor he’s either starred or had supporting roles in over 30 TV and movie productions over the last 17 years.

So as you can see, true to his name, there are many colours to this Chameleon, and music is what keeps his heart pumping. Chris Chameleon has proven that his talent and appeal defy conventional demographics and genrefication. Here is an artist whose relevance extends beyond the local South African scene to include a wider international audience.

With simply a guitar and unusual voice-work, Chris Chameleon has captured the intrigue of fans worldwide and is set to be a pioneering force for South African music in the world ... watch this space!

What happened in America in the days of old
It seems that it let us cold what we’ve been told
The Red Indians were friendly and did shake hand
With white men who cheeky took away their land
Peace was taken away, but what has been brought?
By envy, greed and lust of evil humans got caught!
Thanks to the urge of rivalry and competition
Human beings has lost their way in creation
Their brains full of nonsense and they even think it’s cool
Believe me; such a life only can be lived by some fool
If there is more you’d like to know
Go ahead and open the link below;-)
