The Christopher Banker Band has been pouring out "Americana" rock music since early May of 2001. The band has spent many years finding it's niche among the vast expanse of music that has become Rock & Roll. Carrying strong vocal presence and endless passion, the band is sure to be a favorite among audiences of all musical backgrounds.
Along with playing the musical stylings of Matchbox 20, The Gear Daddies, G.B. Leighton, Gin Blossoms and The Refreshments, the band has also produced a handful of passionate and melodic songs about love, lust, and the toils of human nature.
The band is based out of Saint Cloud Minnesota, playing most of greater Minnesota, South Dakota, northern Iowa, and Wisconsin. The band travels nearly 15,000 miles a year averaging 125 shows.
The Band would like to thank all of those who have supported us through the years. Thank you to the musicians whom we have had the opportunity to work with in the past and all the supporting people we continue to deal with daily. One special thanks to our good friends Captain Geech & The Shrimp Shack Shooters.
