The American Opry | About

The American Opry (A.K.A. Chris Arnold) has been documenting and making music and films for the better part of 15yrs.

I set out on the road several years ago visiting farms and artist communities along the way. Every winter I return to San Francisco where I work with artists and spread the word about what I hear and see in my travels. Some of the artists I worked with, on a more personal level, include Jolie Holland, Sean Hayes, Michael Musika, The White White Quilt, Sonny Smith, Entrance, Joseph Childress and John Dwyer... to name a few.

I have boxes and boxes of video tapes that I am weeding through. We will post them in The American Opry video gallery, as I do, alongside new material... in no particular order.

Larger documentary projects, field recordings, and compilations will be released on Empty Cellar Records.
