CHRIS O'connell American Music Singer
CHRIS O'CONNELL American Music Singer If Chris O'Connell did nothing else in her long career, her reputation would be permanently safe as a charter member of Asleep at the Wheel. Recording and performing non-stop through the 70s and 80s, she was a major force in establishing that band as the world's great touring western swing band and much, much more. Her earliest recordings staked her position as a great country singer, and then she stretched the boundaries with genre-busting renditions of R&B, jazz and jump blues. She proved equally effective at tearing out hearts with wrenching ballads, and raising the roof with smoking big band dance numbers. Chris was barely out of high school, already singing and writing songs for several years, when she heard of a country band that might want a girl singer, and she knocked on their door. Their door was on an unheated two story house out in the West Virginia back country. They were a small gang of college drop outs living on a barrel of lentils, learning to be a band. They called the band Asleep at the Wheel. When they busted out into the world, they would eventually cycle through more than 90 musicians, but Chris stayed for 15 years. At ﬁrst too shy to learn new songs in front of the boys, she spent a frozen winter traipsing through the snow, or sitting in the old Cadillac in the ice, learning the songs of Hank Williams, Loretta Lynn, Moon Mullican. "Those songs, those hills, that cold old snow, that was my higher education, " she remembers that winter.
