About Chris Powe
Los Angeles native, Chris Powe, is an exciting new voice on the alto saxophone. His passion for music began at an early age. He honed his skills in high school, took private lessons under the tutelage of esteemed multi-instrumentalist Scott Mayo, and attended the Fernando Pullum Community Arts Center (FPCAC), which is in the heart of Los Angeles’ Black creative community, Leimert Park.
Powe earned his bachelor’s degree in Music Business/Management from Berklee College of Music. He studied under esteemed professors such as Tia Fuller and Gregory Groover. While in college, he played multiple shows in Boston, New York City, and the greater New England region.
Powe has returned home to Los Angeles and has gigged extensively. He has held residencies under his own name and has played at multiple venues across the city. As an artist/bandleader, Powe recently made his debut with his EP The Search, which is now available on all streaming platforms!
