Chris Dobbs
Chris Has been playing bass guitar since he was drinking milk as a baby in the cornfields of Idaho. A true son of a bitch, Chris had to work hard to escape the dreary landscape of Midwest USA.

Using his unique skills as street busker and after forming a pact with the devil at the crossroads, Chris has launched himself into the great free north of Canada where he enjoys eating fresh caught beaver and riding the great Canadian wild moose.

Now part of Dos Hooligans Chris brings down the house with his heavy bass grooves and slick jive talk.
