Chris Price (born Kristian Price Perez; August 26, 1984) is an American musician, record producer and songwriter best known as the producer of the 2014 album "The Soul of All Natural Things" by Linda Perhacs and as the producer of the upcoming new album by Emitt Rhodes. Price is also a member of the band Taylor Locke and The Roughs, and serves as co-producer and co-writer of all the band's material. He has independently released one album to date as a solo artist ("Homesick") in 2012.
Price was born Kristian Price Perez in Miami, Florida, the son of Betsy Perez (née Betson, b. 1963, Lansdowne, PA) and Grammy Award winning record producer and songwriter Rudy Pérez (b. 1958, Pinar Del Rio, Cuba). He has three younger brothers, Michael, Corey and Adam, and a half sister named Jennifer. Price attended Miami Beach Senior High School in Miami Beach, Florida, where he came under the tutelage of music instructor Doug Burris. Price participated in Burris' Miami Beach Rock Ensemble in high school, where he formed musical partnerships with other students Roger Houdaille and Fernando Perdomo. The three started a band called Dreaming in Stereo and released one EP locally in 2005 before disbanding. Price and Houdaille went on to form the popular local band Monkeypox, which released 3 albums, several non-album singles and a feature-length film in 2005 before breaking up. Price then began writing and performing songs with his brothers Michael and Corey under the band name Price.
In 2006, the band Price, which consisted of brothers Chris, Michael & Corey and drummer Alex Ibanez, was signed to Geffen Records and the three brothers relocated to Los Angeles. Price wrote and recorded two songs for feature films. The song "Hey Nancy Drew" was featured on the soundtrack of the 2007 film Nancy Drew, and the song "Something in Your Eyes" was featured in the film Blonde Ambition. The band showcased at the 2007 South by Southwest Music Conference to an enthusiastic response. In 2008, following the departure of Ibanez and the introduction of new drummer Charles Streeter, Price went in to the studio with producer Tony Berg and recorded a full-length album. The album was ultimately not released and Price parted ways with Geffen Records in 2009 before going on an extended hiatus.
