Chris Darlington is an independent country music artist. Raised in The Eastern Panhandle Region of West Virginia, his love for music is as deeply rooted as the Red Oaks of the Shenandoah Valley. 

His unique style is derived from influencers such as Garth Brooks, Vince Gill, Brad Paisley, Alabama, Diamond Rio and Chris Stapleton. While the gritty texture in his vocals stand out, his lyrics flow as as smoothly as Carolina ‘shine. His passion for music began as a small child. His toy keyboard and musically inclined father (Frank Darlington of Frankie and the Dynamics, circa 1960’s) were the building blocks that would later launch him to pursue his dream of performing in Nashville, TN. He found himself on the stages of The Second Fiddle, The Stage, Tootsies and Crossroads, directly in the heart of Broadway. 

His artistry later led him to write and record several tracks in Nashville TN.

Chris currently juggles his career as a Deputy Sheriff by day and country music artist by night.
