Songbroker Welcomes Chris Warne
Songbroker is pleased to welcome Chris Warne to the fold.
Hailing from the North East of England, Chris started his career back in 1998 as singer/guitarist with indie rock band Smalltown Heroes.
After gaining a large following, they eventually signed to iconic U.K Indie label E’G/Global Chrysalis, home to Killing Joke and Roxy Music in the early 2000’s and later to a major record label in BMG. The band clocked up well over 1800 gigs with the band in Europe, playing many of the big festivals and selling out tours along the way and also touring with many big name bands like Jeff Healey, The Stranglers and Stereophonics.
In the studio they recorded 2 Albums – Atomic Café and the critically acclaimed and award winning debut, Human Soup (reaching # 42 U.K. album charts), which was produced by Aucklander’s Steve Bush and Marshall Bird (Stereophonics, Ronny Wood, Natalie Imbuglia).
Chris can also boast recording the world’s first CD-Rom single, the award winning 'Moral Judgement', taken from the Human Soup album.
Post Smalltown Heroes, he worked in London, with song and radio plugging company Rush Release, working with the likes of Radio one and Virgin radio in the English Capital.
