Christopher Battles: music in the classroom
New York, NY, Oct 31, 2012 — Musician Christopher Battles is hoping to make his mark as an acoustic singer/songwriter in New York City.
Over the last few months, Christopher Battles has shared his musical journey via audio postcards. We've heard occasional stories of his new life -- the pressures, emotional highs and lows and what it's like for an upstate troubadour in the big city.
Christopher grew up in Oswego, graduated from the Crane School of Music last year and now lives in New York City. He studied percussion and music education at Crane, and when he's not performing his brand of folk music on the street, subway platform or the stage of a coffee house, he's a substitute teacher.
