Chris Colston Live Stream Concert: Unforgettable Musical Experience

Chris Colston Live-Stream Concert

The beginning of COVID-19 was a trying time for our community as we all adjusted to this new normal. In an effort to uplift our community, we partnered with Chris Colston to raise money for the East Texas Food Bank and the East Texas Crisis Center!

Chris played an acoustic set that included previews of unreleased songs from his upcoming album, Bombs Away! While Chris is an up-and-coming talent in the Nashville country music scene, he is from Lindale, Texas and has been a friend of UBank for many years. So when the opportunity presented itself to raise money for East Texas COVID-19 relief, partnering with Chris was a no-brainer. 

Together, we were about to raise $3,650 in one night for East Texas COVID-19 relief! Needless to say, we loved hosting this event and were thrilled to be able to give back to our community in such a tangible way. 

About Chris Colston

East Texas native, Chris Colston has recently sent a storm sweeping through the Texas/ Red Dirt scene with the release of his 2018 EP, “Gone.” The title track surpassed a half-million streams on Spotify in just a few short months after its release and with that, Colston set the bar quite high for himself as well as other upcoming artists in the scene. Colston’s musical story began when his stepfather signed him up for drum lessons at the age of 7. He knew immediately that he wanted to be a musician and a few years later he picked up the guitar. At 17, Colston formed his first band and they hit the road playing everywhere they could. Colston’s music is heavily influenced by some of the greats he grew up listening to like Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers and country legends Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson. His musical sound has continued to grow with inspiration from Whiskey Myers and Blackberry Smoke. Listening to them helped Colston curate his own style of what he describes as “gritty Texas roots combined with a little blues and rock n’ roll.” His powerful vocals are undeniable and his honest, relatable lyrics resonate with his rapidly growing fan base creating a product you cannot deny.
