SIXTH-GENERATION TEXAN CHRISTIAN BROOKS brings a lifetime of musical performance to his own mix of Cajun blues meets Texas honky-tonk rock, topped with a little Southern boogie. Creating an original sound thats catchy and easy to dance to, fans keep smiling and listening to the toe-tappin tunes and forceful instrumentals. Brooks slide guitar and vocals lead the band.

Brooks has a rich background in an array of genres, as he sprang out of Dallas well-known OAK CLIFF music community a group that over the past 45 years has produced a string of top-name vocalists and musicians, as well as many current artists.

Like many his age, he began playing during the late 1960s rock revolution, joining with friends and learning the ropes. His next progression came when he combined with new colleagues and spent almost ten years in the contemporary Christian field, traveling and playing while he also produced concerts for a Dallas-based youth ministry. Among those he booked for performances at Dallas Bronco Bowl Theater were ANDRE CROUCH, BARRY McGUIRE, and PHIL KEAGGY.

During the 80s and early 90s, he played in and led a series of Dallas bands, using different versions of the groups original name, The Roadrunners. The Roadrunners, Snookie Duke and the Road Runners, and JONNY PEEBLES and the Roadrunners all played in the DFW Metroplex and around the state. Members of the groups during that time were, along with Brooks, TEXAS SLIM, MOUSE MAYS, GUTHRIE KENNARD, TEX WAGGONER, TOMMY CLOUD, RONNY STERLING, ROB HUNT, and Peebles.

In 1991 Brooks opened Blues Suede Shoe Leather and Boot Repair Shop in Dallas DEEP ELLUM district. Adding musical instrument resale to the stores offerings, BSS became the local hangout for a myriad of musicians and other artists. Frequently shopped by many well-known music industry celebrities, politicians, and dignitaries of the day, the store was a staple in this trendy business neighborhood until 1996, when Brooks left for a five-year hiatus to New Mexico. In Albuquerque, he became the drummer for his former Deep Ellum friend, DAVID ALTICE. Joining Brother Dave and the Tempted Souls, the group recorded three CDs, with selections from one, SMELL IT COOKIN, taking top honors in two categories (Best Blues and Best Mainstream Rock) at the 2000 MIC Awards (now the New Mexico Music Awards). After the death of Altice, Brooks adjusted to the sudden change in his life by picking up his familiar guitar again, and along the way he discovered a new love: the slide guitar, and a new talent: songwriting.
