Chris Norman

Chris Norman is an English soft rock singer and songwriter, whose music career spans more than five decades. Born on October 25, 1950, in Redcar, North Yorkshire, Norman first found fame in the 1970s as the lead singer of the band Smokie, a group that achieved massive success in Europe with hits like "Living Next Door to Alice." After leaving Smokie to pursue a solo career in the 1980s, he continued to capture the hearts of fans with his distinct voice and melodic sound.

Chris Norman's solo career soared with the 1986 hit single "Midnight Lady," which was a number one hit in Germany. Since then, he has produced a diverse range of music, illustrating his versatility as an artist. His solo work, always rooted in his knack for storytelling through music, has seen him explore genres from rock and pop to country, as demonstrated in his album "Another Night in Nashville." With recent albums like "Crossover," "There and Back," and "Time Traveller," Norman continues to showcase his matured sound, filled with deeply personal lyrics and melodic arrangements. Even with remastered classics like "Baby I Miss You," Chris Norman demonstrates his enduring appeal, as well as his commitment to staying connected with his long-time fans while drawing in new listeners with his timeless music style. His live performances, such as the one captured in "Don't Knock The Rock Tour (Live Hamburg 2018)," attest to his continued vitality and charisma on stage.
