Originally from Burlington, Vermont, Chris Titchner moved down to North Carolina in 2000 to go back to school and to try his hand at the highly regarded music scene of Chapel Hill and the rest of the Triangle. Since that time he has been playing 50-75 gigs a year up and down the East Coast.
His most recent album, Moving Day, is neatly packed with road rock just made to be blasted out of a moving truck. Titchner's 11 songs pulse with dissatisfaction and desire- from the ennui associated with a dead end job, to the thrum of tension between potential lovers, to the thrill of finally packing up and going. Produced by Titchner and Thom Canova, Moving Day is acoustic rock living large with a full band, brass quartet, and strings.
About Moving Day:
"Titchner has produced a rare album, an acoustic singer-songwriter album that can appeal to people who do not enjoy the genre."
-- Graham Bailey, Pucknation.com
"Titchner has always been a thinking person's artist. He packs his songs with images, dreams, awkward moments, [and] daily frustrations...Sometimes it's scary how close to home he hits...I don't remember him sounding this gutsy on the last album" -- Jennifer Layton, Indie-Music.com
"Titchner is a normal guy, and he seems to come--like his songs--without pretense or effect, but with affection, sincerity and empathy. Titchner understands his troubles and articulates them with empirical expertise." -- Grayson Currin, The Independent
About Some Things Never Change:
"The songs on 'Some Things Never Change' are as good as they are because the melodies are catchy and the vocal performance is strong. The blend of acoustic guitar and cello is an easy sell to folks who like folk-based music with a pop edge to it...An overall fine job for Titchner and his friends".
- Steve Lemke, Scene and Heard, Burlington Free Press
"Chris Titchner is the most talented independent artist I have ever had the pleasure of listening to...Anyone who decides to listen to Some Things Never Change will not be disappointed, except for the fact that the eleven tracks will leave you wanting even more.
- Amy Robson, leftoffthedial.com
