Some people are born to do what they do; CHRIS FERRARA is no exception. As the story goes, his mother went into labor while singing in the Sunday choir, and he has been on stage ever since. Originally hailing from the small town of Sharon, MA, Ferrara relocated to Nashville in 2013. His music draws from an eclectic mix of influences to create a style as familiar as it is new. A blend of country boy soul with city kid swagger, his appeal is widespread across all genres and markets.
A true entertainer known for his high energy performances, Ferrara and his band, THE COMMON GOOD, is an infectious feel good show that has supported everything from national tours and festivals to global conferences and high profile weddings. They currently holds a Friday/Saturday night residency at Barstool Nashville and recently held a two-year residency at Justin Timberlake’s The 12/30 Club. With a horn section, keytar, and choreography to boot, CFTCG is more than a performance; it is an experience- one that has yet to leave a crowd unsatisfied.
The band’s name “The Common Good” is a direct reflection of Ferrara’s vision for his career: to make the world a better place for the common good. His movement, aptly named "For The Common Good” is being used to share happiness, inspire positivity, and shine a light on the good that goes on around us. Proceeds from all of his singles have been donated to various charities, and he continues to donate his time and talents to serve his community.
A few of Ferrara’s recent singles- notably ‘Old Glory,” which was used as the coming home song for the U.S. Navy’s CVN 71 U.S.S. Theodore Roosevelt - have been distributed by Big Machine Label Group in partnership with non-profit Creativets, helping veterans share their stories and recover from PTSD. Ferrara has proudly worked with Creativets for the last 10 years and continues to give back to our nation’s heroes.
Whether armed with an acoustic guitar or backed by his seven piece band, Ferrara's soulful voice and charismatic personality continue to win over fans on a nightly basis, quickly making him a household name in Music City and beyond.
