Chris Cain (born 19 November 1955, San Jose, California, United States[1]) is a blues and jazz guitarist with an international following. He began playing professionally as a teenager there, in local clubs, at festivals, and at private events.
A virtuoso guitar player, Cain is also regarded among his fans and in the blues community as one of the most innovative and creative improvisers playing blues and jazz guitar today.[citation needed]
Cain received four Blues Music Award nominations in 1987 for his debut album, Late Night City Blues, including Guitarist of the Year. He signed to Blind Pig in 1990, releasing his second album, Cuttin' Loose, the same year. The guitarist stayed at Blind Pig for the next few years, releasing Can't Buy A Break in 1992 and Somewhere Along the Way in 1995.[1]
