Early Years
Chris Kahl was born and raised on the Space Coast of Florida where he began playing guitar as a teenager. After graduating from Merritt Island High School in 1995, he attended Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida where he studied Economics and earned an MBA. During his time in college he performed locally in a band called Chris Kahl and the B-Sides.
Disenchanted with the American music scene, Kahl moved to London in the summer of 2000. He formed a new version of Chris Kahl and the B-Sides and recorded The Odessa Morning EP in 2003. But after unsuccessful attempts to obtain a record deal, the group disbanded.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or years:
“I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.”
—Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
“Talleyrand said that two things are essential in life: to give good dinners and to keep on fair terms with women. As the years pass and fires cool, it can become unimportant to stay always on fair terms either with women or one’s fellows, but a wide and sensitive appreciation of fine flavours can still abide with us, to warm our hearts.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (b. 1908)
