Christopher Becker Whitley (August 31, 1960 – November 20, 2005) was an American blues singer-songwriter and guitarist.
Highly acclaimed by critics, Whitley achieved modest mainstream success, but had a devoted following. Whitley’s style was rooted primarily in blues, but drew on an array of influences. In 2001, the New York Times called him “restless …evoking Chet Baker and Sonic Youth as much as Robert Johnson”. (wiki)
