CANVASES embodies a fusion of British and Danish talent, comprised of the versatile singer-songwriter Chris Catton and the accomplished multi-instrumentalist Morten Bille. Together, they form the creative core, seamlessly blending their distinct musical backgrounds to craft compelling soundscapes.
Drawing inspiration from their diverse experiences, the duo meticulously crafts each composition within the confines of their intimate studio, aptly named "Lydkælderen" or "The Sound Cellar". Situated in Copenhagen, this creative sanctuary serves as the birthplace for their sonic explorations.
Bille's musical journey has seen him traverse both Copenhagen and New York, immersing himself in enriching masterclasses, while Catton's academic pursuits led him to attain a bachelor's degree in music from the esteemed Royal Academy of Music in Aarhus. His passion for sonic engineering further propelled him into the realm of classical recording, underscoring his commitment to musical excellence.
Individually, both musicians boast extensive musical CVs, having lent their talents to a myriad of projects spanning genres as diverse as musical theatre, synthwave pop/rock, and gritty garage punk. Their collective repertoire bears testimony to their versatility, garnering acclaim both as mainstays and featured collaborators across various musical ensembles.
