• Chris_Gheran abstract "Chris Gheran (born 1980) is a singer/songwriter known for his contribution of Hard Folk to original music in Alberta, Canada. Hard Folk, coined by Gheran, is a flavour of Traditional Folk that deals with the common modern man's issues of the 21st century (for example: self-entitlement, warfare with ill-defined purpose, urban growth, and arm's length communication) delivered in an edgy passionate manner with various rhyme schemes.With the backup of two ensembles, Gheran released his first album "Monster" in 2008 with David Alcock at Sundae Sound Studios and mastered by Dave Horrocks with Infinite Wave. Gheran wanted to produce a more personal album. In 2010, he co-produced (again with Alcock and Horrocks) "Coup d'etat" a collection of songs dedicated to soldiers around the world. His third album, "Calgary", about and influenced by Gheran's hometown, was funded by Rawlco Radio and the Alberta Foundation for the Arts (AFA) and recorded with Danny Patton at Airwaves Recording Studios in Calgary and mastered by Andy Krehm with Silverbirch Productions.[citation needed] In 2012, Gheran again received an AFA grant to record "Matterhorn". Although the $10,000 grant would have funded recording, mixing, and mastering if done by a professionally recognized studio, Gheran was looking for a particular sound that he believed he could not achieve in the studios known to him.[citation needed] Therefore, he outfitted his basement studio (christened "Pepperland" on November 15, 2011) and laid down the tracks there, returning $7000 to AFA.[citation needed] The album was manufactured in both CD and vinyl.Gheran was part of a small ceremony for Ian Tyson on March 28, 2012. A Calgary Transit public art piece features the lyrics to Tyson's "Land of Shining Mountains", displayed in glass and stone. Gheran performed while he and Tyson rode Calgary Transit's downtown LRT to and from the art installation to City Hall. Tyson sang along to Gheran's "Oh Dear" (Matterhorn, 2012).[citation needed]Gheran opened for The Fray in Calgary's Jack Singer Concert Hall March 31, 2011, during their tour with U2. Gheran won Jack FM's Busker Idol contest in 2010 (asked to judge in 2011), followed by 6 performances with the 2010 Calgary Folk Music Festival (including hosting their Youth Songwriting Competition). He was included in the lineup for Medicine Hat's Tongue on Post Festival in 2011 and opened for Jonathan Richman in Calgary's Sled Island in 2008 (also performed Sled Island in 2009).In fall 2013 Gheran toured across Canada to military establishments kicking off at: Royal Canadian Legion Centennial Branch 285 in Calgary, Alberta; and including: Sir Winston Churchill #3 Army Navy Air Force Vets at Elks Lodge in Edmonton, Alberta 4 Wing Cold Lake, Alberta CFB Wainwright, Yorkton Legion #77, Saskatchewan 3 Canadian Forces Flight Training School, Southport Airport, Manitoba Military Family Resource Centre, Shilo, Manitoba Army Navy Air Force Vets #10, Brandon, Manitoba General Stewart Legion #4 and 20th Independent Field Battery, Lethbridge, Alberta CFB Suffield, AlbertaDuring the tour, Gheran also performed at: Kaleido Festival, Edmonton, Alberta House Concert in Cold Lake, Alberta House Concert in Battleford, Saskatchewan Crandleberry's Cafe in North battleford, Saskatchewan Moka Coffee Bar in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Gordie's Coffee House, Winnipeg, Manitoba House Concert in Regina, Saskatchewan Breakout West Festival at WineOhs and Cafe Koi, Calgary, AlbertaGallery House Concerts Society (since April 22, 2011) frequently has Gheran host their not-for-profit monthly concerts.".
