ABOUT PINNELLA

 Whether performing with symphony orchestras around the country, leading his own combos of anywhere from 8-15 players or (for several tours of North America and Europe) lending his finely honed skills to the prog-rock / crossover locomotive known as the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Chris Pinnella’s association with the late Paul O’Neil’s spectacularly scaled project netted the NJ native a platinum record for his contributions to ‘The Lost Christmas Eve’ Tour and a chance to perform for over 1 Million people for New Year’s Eve in Berlin.

In the process the seasoned young performer built his brand as a bandleader through gigs at venues that range from big city nightspots to theatres across the United States. In addition, Pinnella has been in demand for various Luxury, Private, Charity, & Fundraising Events across the country. Playing events at The Rainbow Room, The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Jazz! At Lincoln Center, The Mandarin Oriental, The Plaza Hotel, Guastavino’s, The Explorer’s Club, & many more. Recently Pinnella was tapped by UK producer Ben Lewis to tour as a guest vocalist with American Young Voices performing in major arenas throughout the United States.  For more information please visit: www.chrispinnella.com
