Christopher is a music lover first and foremost. A believer that that the vibration of sound can uplift, teach, and heal. The people he admires all share this common sensibility.
Chasing the sound, he has performed and recorded playing guitar, bass, piano, saxophone, drums and percussion of all shapes and sizes, didgeredoo, and theremin, as well as singing lead and harmony vocals. Recording, engineering, mixing, and mastering skills round out the equation. His musical history includes names like Eddy and The Cruisers, Frankenbury, Bliss Family Jive, Sleepy Hollow, Astrolab, Spaghetti Cake, and The FBombz.
A graphic designer by trade, Christopher has always applied his visual sense to music as well, working on projects for and about The Sun Ra Arkestra, The Black Crowes, Yogi, Flipper Dave, Shortness, Mr. Fables, and 91.7 WHUS FM.
As a solo artist, MySpace, marks the first time ever that Mr. E has released any of the many solo recordings made in various studios, basements, and attics through the years. Many of the songs posted here have never even been heard by family and friends.

Spaghetti Cake's latest single "Guitar Hero" is by far the band's most rocking anthem about the fire, the passion, and the power of your first guitar hero, your first real record, and your first real guitar.

Christopher, Wow! How amazing it is to revisit these songs through the lens of "the Angel of History." Very Intriguing. Indeed, perspective is the mint! 15 years of it now. The Rope Miles now seems especially poignant to me now. It resounds like some great presentiment of things that were to come. The Elephant and the Ant seems so vibrant too. Nice trip via the time machine that is music. Best Wishes, Nicholaus
Hey there Noodles - Happy Holidays from Glen and Sue! Great news - "What About Pluto - EP" is now available to buy as a physical disc at CD Baby! Complete your Spaghetti Cake collection today.
Check out a couple of tunes from an epic band that I was in back in 1996-1996 in Oberlin, OH called "Mighty Little". It was an original 12-piece Zappa-esque ensemble, fronted by none other than our own Adam Larrabbee.
Features three brand-new studio tracks from Spaghetti Cake recorded in August 2007, plus the classic but never-before released hit "Farm Boy".
"What About Pluto" is an instant Spaghetti Cake classic. Inspired by the recent 'reclassification' of our beloved ninth planet Pluto, this song reflects on the tiny orb's signifigance in all of our lives; past, present, and future. A live concert favorite for Spaghetti Cake, mixed by the great Earl Cohen.
"Who's Your Best Friend" is a 'tween girl fist-pumping skirt-twirling pop anthem about the magical power of true friendship. Inspired by Glen's own music students at school, this catchy hook will have you dancing in your living rooms and singing along with every word. Mixed by Earl Cohen.
"Miles and Miles of Smiles" - This new bonus track rounds out the "Pluto" EP. Commissioned to be included on a national dental health compilation CD, Sue returns to take you on an unforgettable flight of fancy through sun-drenched sandy beaches on a bicycle to surfing a thunderous stormy sea on your bed!
