​

In the last few years Billboard charting saxophonist, Chris Godber (God – brrr) has become a highly sought-after performer in both the Smooth Jazz & Gospel Jazz realms. His 2015 album "Starting Over" launched him into the Smooth Jazz spotlight with the consecutive chart-topping hits Rain and Chill. Following that was his 2018 album, MOMENTUM yielding a Top 10 slot on the Groove Jazz Music charts for 16 weeks.  He’s been playing some of the nation’s largest jazz festivals and constantly selling out his own shows at various jazz clubs throughout the country thanks to his addictive melodies and inspiring performances. Godber was told by his doctors he'd never play the saxophone due to the severity of his asthma as a child. Through faith and determination, he has beat the odds and is now leaving audiences breathless instead.     Read more...​
