Coming directly from secondary school, the 15 year old Chris hit it big by getting the chance to play the Artful Dodger in the 1963 production of Oliver! in the West End/London. After the Oliver! Production successfully toured America in 1964, Chris joined the band Fleur de Lys as vocalist and rhythm guitarist. Chris' last project with Fleur de Lys was to record 'Reflections of Charles Brown', released under the name of Ruberts People reaching Top 30 in the UK, and charting in other countries. Not to be confused with Yesterday Man Chris Andrews, he has also written and recorded singles under different pseudonyms such as Tim Andrews and Kris Ryder. As Kris Ryder, he recorded the 1978 album 'Kris Ryder' produced by Christopher Neil. His songs have been recorded by such artists as David Essex, Roger Daltrey (The WHO), the Casuals and Canadian Singer Florence Warner amongst others. Most commonly known are his contribution to Radio and Television theme music including the Chart Show, Star Test and Star Chamber. His most recent project has been writing a musical with his fellow Artful Dodger and friend David Jones The Monkees.
