Christopher may have come from simple beginnings, but he knows that life is far from simple. He was born and raised in a factory town outside of Newark NJ, and spent a lot of time listening to the music that flowed through the house almost every night. “My parents had an enormous record collection”, he explains. “We would sit for hours listening to everything from Elton John to Billy Joel to Queen to Led Zeppelin. I couldn’t have asked for a better set of influences.” Small wonder that those influences show through in his music – sincere, direct, and with a Rock n’ Roll edge that reflects ourselves right back at us. Maybe this is why his fans relate to his music on such a personal level.
Chis continues to perform nationally, and has opened for such acts as Jakob Dylan, Southside Johnny, and many other national artists. He has also been featured in several televised music programs such as "Music is Art: Live at the Center" and is in rotation at several stations across the U.S. and Canada.
"Engaging...He plays his melodic, hard-strummed tunes with an impassioned urgency." - Erie News-Times "
A passionate vocalist -his gravelly voice is comparable to Darkness on the Edge of Town era Springsteen. Bob Sylvestri, Best of Western New York magazine
"(Squier) does what he does well...It's acoustic rock about real-life, small-town America situations and themes, reminiscent of Mellancamp or of Springsteen... and it doesn't need to pretend to be anything except what it is." - Northeast IN-TUNE Magazine

TY ! My female friend says,"A man knows for sure that a woman loves him if these 4 things are present:
1. She NEEDS you. You are useful to her in some way.
2. She ACCEPTS you. (ie, She’s not trying to change you. Here is the red flag, the things she is trying to change about you, SHE DOESN'T ACCEPT. Heed that as a warning. ) 3. She APPRECIATES you.
4. She RESPECTS you. "
MY COMMENTS: I don't agree with this because you can't generalize any group of people, race or creed. Not all men are equal and not all women are exactly the same for any trait.
Love is complicated and cannot be held in a box or on paper. I can feel all of those things for a good friend and not be in love. Yes, it is love, but I think romantically two people have to have chemistry too. And while I agree that women should not try to change men, everyone is always changing. There are always things that two people in love must do to compromise, and get along. Does that entail change? Yes, I think so. Major change? No--- So love is much more than one can describe even in pages and pages of explanation. A wise man once said that love lies within the actions one takes. Do you agree with this ?
