This Thurs I’m collaborating with a whole bunch of CT songwriters to play on each others’ tunes as The CT Hope Collective at The Social in New London, CT to benefit the New London Homeless Hospitality Center. It’s going to be a really special show. When else will you see me do a glockenspiel solo?

Last night’s Halloween Hangover music and drag show at 33 Golden St. in New London hosted by Lucy Cigarettes was one to remember. The energy of the crowd was amazing. I went for a Frank Iero circa 2004 look, and I played a Les Paul Special instead of the Mustang. I liiiiiked it a lot.

Y’all…I have a free outdoor gig tonight with the full band in Cheshire, CT at Ball and Socket Arts. Bring a picnic and hang out in a parking lot with us? The Sawtelles, our forever ride-or-die pals open. I’m pretty sure there’s a pizza place nearby so pie picnic sounds pretty dang good.

Howdy new folks! I’m a non-binary, multidisciplinary artist, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist from Connecticut. I usually play/sing my own songs solo and with a band but I’ve got an improvisational instrumental set coming up with sound artist Jeff Dragan at Never Ending Books on Dec. 27th.

search “concert” and post the oldest pic in your camera roll
Chris Bousquet at Cafe Nine, New Haven, 2019 (I believe this was an early show after the new owners bought it). The Sawtelles were also on that bill.

If you’re near New Haven, CT tonight I’m playing at Volume Two at Never Ending Books with The Void Kittens, Elisa Flynn, and The Sawtelles. I hope we’ll get a chance to hand color some posters to give out later. Byobeverages.

Last night I ran through my set for Saturday—literally. I jogged in place for part of it, and it helped me keep time and get out of my own head. I don’t know if I’ll do that regularly, but it was a fun game.
