NOTE: The songs sound better through headphones. You kind of lose the lower notes with computer speakers, but if you listen with headphones you can get the full effect of the fingerpicking and harmonies :)

Biography written by Maureen Palli
Kris Angelis is a radiant new singer/songwriter living in the city that shares her name. The Los Angeles based musician writes lyrics that read like poetry (“the rain turned to lace on the first day and the last day that I was a child”) and delivers harmonies imbued with a sense of longing. She names Brandi Carlile, Ray LaMontagne, Hanson, Rufus Wainwright and David Gray as influences to her acoustic folk-rock sound, but adds that everything in her life influences her music.
Music has always been part of her life. “I started singing when I started talking,” Angelis says. Growing up on a 45-acre hay farm outside Gainesville, Florida, Angelis spent her days riding horses and playing with her identical twin sister, which she reminisces about in Remember the Rain. “We made up little songs in our tree house,” says Angelis. “It was a great way to learn to harmonize because our voices blend so well.” As a child, she played violin and sang in her church choir. She learned to play guitar when she was 19-years-old. “When I began playing guitar, I really started writing a lot of songs,” she says.
In 2005, Angelis released Brief Sounds a four track EP of her original songs with the help of Tim Hanseroth (Brandi Carlile, The Fighting Machinists). Angelis played guitar and performed vocals while Hanseroth provided backup on guitar, bass, synthesizer and percussion. And she has just released a new EP titled Ghost in the Corner which includes 5 new tracks and one hidden track (shhh*).
Acting since age 11, she has studied with master teachers from Juilliard and Tisch School of the Arts in New York City. Along with her twin sister Alix, she has made numerous television appearances including a Pizza Hut commercial and more recently a guest spot on the NBC series Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip.
Angelis draws on her acting ability to express emotion in her songs. She bluffs her way through I Wish telling a convincing lie whose truth is revealed at the end, whereas she conveys complete candor on Brief Sounds (“I looked all around for you so I could pretend that I didn’t care that you were there”) No Place Like Home addresses regret (“I walked through the smoke and I coughed and I choked, when I could have sung out instead”) while it also imparts hope (“I’ll take another step in the direction I’m going”)
In addition to her musical and acting talents, Angelis is also a dancer which makes her a triple threat with brains to boot. She earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2006, completing a four year Psychology degree in just three years. Angelis plans to continue her studies and eventually earn a PhD in Physical Therapy.
Currently performing regular gigs, Angelis is wowing audiences throughout California (and across the United States on a 6-week tour in March and April of 2008), with her gorgeous vocals, clever lyrics, and powerful melodies which recently landed her in the Top 25 of the Star 98.7 FM Rockstar Contest. And she's having a great time doing it. Says Angelis: “I’m very excited about this part of my life!”

Welcome my friend, Please excuse us if we already sent this to you, we are getting ready for something HUGE! So stay tuned. The more people coming together and helping spread awareness is more powerful. I started writing Just over FOUR Months ago and it is already a huge success! People from all around the world sending there success story’s to me how I have inspired them in so many ways! It is so wonderful! I am moving forward in telling my story, spreading awareness. Thank you for joining me! You must be a wonderful person to care enough to take your time to spread awareness. I look forward to knowing you. I have triumphed over Domestic Violence. My horrific story is in my blog. Please read and feel free to post it on your website. To help spread awareness. I am almost finished with my book of my life and how I overcame DV thru practicing what I know about the law of attraction. My passion is to teach others how they can do it as well. I have written most of it in my blog on an almost daily basis for the past FOUR months!!! There is a pest that is trying to stop me, and he is a politician Named Bart Mulvihill! Check it out! I suggest starting on the oldest blog so it makes sense and you know who the people are. To find the story of how I came to start writing, look for “THE BIG BANG, My husband tried to kill us both then when he failed, he killed Himself” Or “My Story” It will blow you away! You will find that on my main page. There is a lot more to the story than that. I was abused as a child then it followed me into my relationships as an adult. I HAVE TRIUMPHED OVER DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. In Love & Light, Michelle Miller P.S. Sign my guestbook
