Is my life really this stressful or am I just stressing myself out? I absolutely love Atlanta but I’ve had a hard time balancing work and life since I’ve been here. But I’m working on it. Maybe seeing Danzig live tonight is the answer.

Welcome to Chris Cates.com. I'm an old school independent artist with lots of albums, songs, solar panels etc. This site tries to encapsulate what it is I've been doing since I played my first professional gig at 13. I post a song of the day occasionally from my somewhat excessive original song catalogue and I'm constantly recording new material when I'm not building solar farms, trying to play golf or tennis or taking care of my new twin girls.
