About Chris Flowers
Live Looping Guitarist · Tampa Bay
I'm Chris Flowers — a Tampa Bay-based live musician, guitarist, pianist, vocalist, and live looping performer with over 25 years on stage. Using cutting-edge looping technology, I build entire songs in real-time right in front of your guests — layering guitar, vocals, keys, drum pads, and synths to create a full-band sound from a single performer.
I've performed at Seminole Hard Rock, Straz Center, JW Marriott, House of Blues, The Don CeSar, and hundreds of weddings, corporate galas, and private celebrations across Florida.
What Makes This Different
Live Looping Guitar
I build songs from the ground up in real-time — layering guitar, vocals, drum pads, and synths to create a full-band sound. One artist, one stage, one unforgettable show.
Piano & Keys
Elegant piano for ceremonies, cocktail hours, and intimate moments. Add the piano show to any guitar package for a premium double-feature.
Interactive Song Requests
Guests scan a QR code to browse my song list, make live requests, and even leave tips. Every show becomes an interactive, shared experience.
Professional Sound
I bring a full professional PA system suitable for most venues. For larger events, I coordinate with your AV team for seamless integration.

Background
With over 25 years of performing experience, Chris Flowers has become one of Tampa Bay's most sought-after live entertainers. Born and raised in Florida, Chris grew up immersed in music — from blues and jazz to rock, R&B, and island vibes.
Over 25+ years and more than 1,000 events, Chris has refined a performance style that delivers full-band energy from a single artist — layering guitar, vocals, percussion, and keys live on stage. Add the QR-code request system he built into his shows, and guests aren't just an audience — they shape the setlist in real time.
When he's not performing at weddings and private events, you can catch Chris every Sunday at Gaspar's Grotto in Ybor City, Noon to 4PM. He also performs regularly at top venues throughout Florida including Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Sparkman Wharf, The Don CeSar, and many more.
Built the Show I Wanted to See
After thousands of shows, Chris kept hitting the same wall: guests wanted to request songs, tip, and engage in the moment — but the tools to do that didn't exist. So he built one. Hear Your Song Now is the QR-code request platform that powers every Chris Flowers show — and it's now open to other working artists who want the same interactive experience for their audiences.
Scan, browse the song list, send a request (and optionally a tip), and watch it land in the set. The show stops being a one-way broadcast and becomes a shared room.
