Chris Isaak

Chris Isaac is an American actor and musician who has realized himself in the direction of rock and roll. In media interviews, he has repeatedly called himself the successor to Elvis Presley. The author and performer of the hit "Blue Hotel" remains in demand in cinema today and collaborates with Warner Brothers Records.

Chris Isaac was born in the US state of California, in the city of Stockton, on June 26, 1956. The family of the future star was among the people with an average income. Chris's parents and two brothers rarely made big purchases, but they were proud of the musical collection of records from the stars of the 1940s. Little Chris grew up on the hits of Dean Martin, Elvis Presley and Bing Crosby.

The singer has a university degree from Stockton University and an internship at the Japanese Pacific University. As it turns out later, Isaac immediately realized that his heart was in music, so no other area fully captured his interest. The young man practiced boxing, worked as a guide at a city film studio and practiced composing romantic ballads, which he performed to the accompaniment of a guitar.

Once in a boxing match, Chris broke his nose and needed the help of surgeons. After medical intervention, the guy's appearance changed. He began to enjoy the attention of the fair sex, and a sweet voice and sad compositions, which the young man happily performed, surrounded him with a romantic halo.

The creative biography of Chris Isaac originates from the moment of the creation of the group "Silvertone". The group consisted of musicians who owned drums, solo, slide and bass guitars, as well as an electric organ. Young performers relied heavily on quality sound and thus attracted the attention of the audience.

Considerable attention was paid to the arrangements, which later became the trademark of the ensemble. It can be difficult to find mutual understanding in creative unions, and the musicians of "Silvertone" are among the specialists who have succeeded. In 1985, the team signed to Warner Brothers Records and released their debut album.

The first disc was a failure: critics disapproved of Isaac's performing style, which they saw as an imitation of predecessors in the chosen genre. The next album was given to the collective with considerable difficulty and was released under the name "Chris Isaak". The disc hit the top 200 popular albums. It consisted of 11 tracks, 10 of which belonged to the vocalist, and the 11th was written by Graham Goldman.

1987 for the group was marked by the emergence of the permanent hit "Blue Hotel", in which the audience saw the vocal techniques of Elvis Presley. It is curious that the first wave of popularity overtook the composition due to the location of the French audience, and then the song was appreciated in the USA. The performing style of Chris Isaac provided great opportunities for the realization of "Silvertone". The song "Wicked Game" is a case in point.

The 1989 album "Heart Shaped World" became a breakthrough in the creative activity of the collective. The sales volumes significantly exceeded the sales of the previous records. In 1996, the disc turned out to be multi-platinum, as the circulation exceeded 2 million copies.

Despite the success, the Warner Brothers label suspended cooperation with the musician and his band, motivating this with insufficient commercial return. "Silvertone" saved David Lynch's interest in "Wicked Game". The song served as the soundtrack for the film Wild at Heart.

The audience and connoisseurs of 1980-1990 rock and roll often compared Chris Isaac to Elvis. Many saw an imitation in the work of Chris and drew analogies between the compositions. Isaac's expressive voice and wide range created the allure that Presley's fans admired, but his assurances that the singer was the successor to the idol of millions seemed too loud.

Isaac's popularity grew. He wore a costume similar to that of James Dean, made an intriguing cook, and won women's hearts with his lyrical performance. Chris Isaac achieved full recognition in 1991. His photos were published on the covers of glossy magazines, and hits were reprinted. In the wake of the popularity of Lynch's film, the album with "Wicked Game" tirelessly sold out in the United States and abroad.

All Silvertone records became incredibly popular with the audience, and Isaac was presented with the music award "Best Vocalist of the Year". The video for "Wicked Game" featuring Helena Christensen made a splash on television, and Chris became the face of many advertising campaigns.

The image created by Chris Isaac on TV helped to promote his musical creativity and get closer to the public. The artist's first appearance in the frame took place in Johnny Carson's Tonight Show, where the musician became a guest guest. In the future, Isaac has repeatedly worked on TV shows like "Great Shows", "Rage", "Disconnected" and others.

The man appeared in the frame, portraying himself and trying on the role of other characters. The film “Married to the Mafia” became his debut in a feature film. This film was followed by participation in the filming of Silence of the Lambs.

His involvement in the creation of Twin Peaks in 1992 brought popularity to Isaac and his music. The success was supported by the collaboration with Bernardo Bertolucci in the framework of the "Little Buddha" project.

The album "San Francisco Days", released during this period, did not make a splash, so the audience paid more and more attention to Isaac on the screen than on the music scene.

The artist concentrated on working on television and regularly appeared in front of the camera, participating in the filming of series. From time to time, his television images were interspersed with roles in full-length films. For a while, the celebrity even had his own show.

Diversified personality, Chris Isaac is realized in many directions of creativity. In his spare time, he enjoys drawing comics and animation, surfing and still devotes most of his time to professional development. The musician has brothers, Jeff and Nick, with whom he often meets.

Little is known about the vocalist's personal life. Fans interested in the presence of Chris's wife and children will not find information about them in their personal Instagram account. It is known that Chris suffered a loss in his youth. His beloved, after a long courtship, reciprocated the musician, but the union did not last long, since the girl died.

In 2018, as in his youth, Chris Isaac remains true to his familiar style. His music in the style of the composition "Can't Help Falling In Love With You" is still lyrical and reminiscent of the 1980s.

The performer continues to perform on stage, and is also realized as a composer, producer and director. Isaac does not part with a television career and receives invitations to collaborate on various projects.
